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.

“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.
