Girls on film

I'm not trying to sound sexist, but I feel there are only a handfull of female photographers that ever got to the absolute top. It's definitely not because women are worse photographers than men. People just tend to stare at their breasts, not their pictures. My point is, Annie Leibovitz rules. However, if you want to see her good pictures, buy her books. The A&C pictures are crap, in comparison.







Also, the Solve Sundsbo exhibition was so-so. I don't really like exhibitions that don't have a clear theme. It's not that hard taking 454232 0000 pictures, pick the 10 most aesthetically pleasing ones and then name the exhibition "Light & Magic". That being said, there was an amazing vampire/tomboy portrait of Jessica Stam. It looked kind of like this(This one is not of Stam):
