Tickle Your Fancy – #16
Welcome back to our sixteenth post in our new section ‘Tickle Your Fancy’. ‘Tickle Your Fancy’ includes a round-up of five links to articles from around the internet that have specifically interested us during the course of the week. Ones that we feel are relevant to your interest in photography and art. Just to explain the title for this section ‘Tickle Your Fancy’ is an English idiom and essentially means that something appeals to you and perhaps stimulates your imagination in an enthusiastic way, we felt it would make a great title for this new section of the site. We hope you enjoy this weeks’ selections… Lara Stone, for…

iBook – Humans of New York
If you’re looking for a little ‘downtime’ this weekend, perhaps away from apps for a while, then why not take a look at this outstanding photographic iBook by Brandon Stanton – ‘Humans of New York’? Stanton has a unique technique or some might say ‘gift’. Essentially, he approaches total strangers on the streets of New York, asks if he may take their photograph and then asks them really quite intimate questions and it’s that intimacy that brings his subjects to reveal all manner of things and inevitably say ‘I don’t know why I’m telling you this’.
