Much more than vintage photography

With the advent of Instagram and various products, free or not, that greatly simplify the ’ art of photography is a hoot to find shots (of places, people or events) that does not have a style “vintage“.

The Stylize filters every pictures made with the phone are beautiful and sometimes especially suited to the type of subject, but the real study of photography and composition of a set cannot even remotely be compared to a mobile phone, although avant garde. A perfect example of this lack of comparison is the collection of photographs taken by Bill Gekas.

The Australian photographer has portrayed its little daughter of 5 years with a style reminiscent of a lot of the paintings of the Flemish school, worthy of an extraordinary Vermeer.

The self-taught photographer started shooting with film 35 mm then switch to digital in 2005, with a remarkable result especially as regards the use of light.
