La Chute

Photographer Denis Darzacq captures images of people in the act of falling down:

In the rough manner of architecture, he opposes the elasticity between his body and his desires. This gravitation exercice requires Discipline, even if it's not the one we've learned in classrooms.

I'm not sure exactly what that means, but his photos are cool.

Congrats, O' Canada, for your choice of literature.

As an accomplished photographer the stuff above is most definitely A.R.T. but should not be confused with good photography.

Yeeee! Some of those look like they're going to hurt a whole lot.

Well, Cap'n, they are center loaded and lacking in any interesting content. They may be interesting or even, in some cases, provocative images created with a camera and PhotoShop but I hardly exhibit any great prowess with the camera or even medium.
