a photography blog, where the "subject" in contemporary fine art portraiture is discussed, represented, gazed upon, thought about, linked to, photographed, questioned, personified, objectified, idealized, commented on, rephotographed, interacted with, gallerized, imagined, pygmalionized, storied, stripped, redrawn, blinked at, analyzed, admired, stumbled upon, half-perceived, retreated from, disdained, recreated, considered, etc., from a subject-oriented position. maybe.

i've been reading james's blog since he started writing it back in 2000? 2001? something like that. i think of his writing there much like a bona fide commonplace book. he's a great, if understated and unknown photographer, and is passionately (if quietly and humbly) engaged about a wide variety of interesting things.
i also love his "about" page--those kind of ironic and terribly revealing curriculum vitaes are wonderful personal reading.
hi stacy -- the "about" page is intense. as is the color scheme...
