Collective Thinking is an ongoing series where BME members take turns curating group edits.

We enter the world vulnerable, weak, dependent, and seeing only in black and white. That vulnerability may continue as other aspects of our personality emerge, and our vision develops to seeing life in color.

Burn My Eye brings to you, Dark Tales of Childhood.

Collective Thinking is an ongoing series where BME members take turns curating group edits.

“In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was going to get out again.”

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll, 1865

As photographers, we have already been here. This great change of circumstance isn’t something we can always put our finger on… but every once in a while it’s fun to look back and make-believe our transportation into a parallel world that, for everyone outside of our imagination, is one and the same.

I hope you enjoy Four Thousand Miles Down.

Jason Penner

It appears that we forgot to properly introduce our latest recurring feature here at BME. Collective Thinking is an ongoing series where BME members take turns curating group edits of each other’s work. This upcoming Monday (March 25th) a new edit by Jason Penner will go live… but let’s reflect back on February. The 14th to be precise…

Members of BME all share different perspectives on romance. From youth to old age. From lust to companionship. From first kisses to warming cuddles.

The Invaders Must Die: A Flickr edit by Frédéric Le Mauff.

What I like the most about my fellow BME member is that there’s always a way to tell a story with their photographs. Concerning more particularly Justin Vogel; he has so many odd catches that it was a pleasure to find my own way through his Flickr stream.

I found it funny to tell the story of invaders sowing panic on NYC, funny to call to Superman for help. But stories have not necessarily a happy end.

This is not a project. It is just the start of one. A reconnaissance of Istanbul from the summer of 2012. These are Charlie’s Initial Impressions.

A collection of previous Christmas snaps by Burn My Eye members, perhaps a bit detached from the usual celebratory or romantic mode that goes with the season.

“Strange Days” is a compilation of street photography images taken during the past year. My approach is to photograph without a specific theme or idea in mind. When I look back at the pictures I’ve taken, I notice certain echoes in theme and style that transcend the documentary specifics of the images. These pictures are like missing pages from the same story, blown across time to different corners of the world. Without telling the full story, I’ve tried to put some of these images back together in portfolios. “Strange Days” like the film I named the portfolio after, is one of these fragmented stories, a puzzle with plenty of missing pieces.
