They know that the mainstream media gives woefully inadequate and occasionally very inaccurate coverage of the East Village, and they provide an invaluable service by filling that gap. Some may see this as being preachy, but my opinion (for what it's worth) is that they're only taking pains to show what the mainstream media just doesn't get. If Bob and Lorcan are ever silenced or choose to pursue other photographic endeavors, the neighborhood will suffer for it.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15133620064728357184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19108210.post-27616196811809464692007-08-16T11:35:00.000-04:002007-08-16T11:35:00.000-04:00although at times I find them pedantic I do love B...although at times I find them pedantic I do love Bob and Lorcan's photography and how much they care about our community and our characters and you feel the compassion --- I love them and their powerful important photograhy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<BR/><BR/>You photographry speaks to theirs as an equal.<BR/>Love,<BR/>Suzannah B.

Their work really appeals to me, and it gives me ideas for my own compositions. They're extremely willing to share tips and tricks with me that they've accumulated over the decades. <BR/><BR/>How lucky am I?Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15133620064728357184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19108210.post-43660157174571771622007-08-12T08:41:00.000-04:002007-08-12T08:41:00.000-04:00I see you as having a slightly different sensibili...I see you as having a slightly different sensibility and aesthetic from either, which appeals to me more, though both are certainly fine photographers. I definitely see this, but don't really have the concepts with which to describe it: a certain gentleness, lightness, fluidity, sensibility to pattern, perhaps? At no cost in uncompromising strength and impact. Perhaps it's the Japanese influence.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08690685768980280402noreply@blogger.com
