Gregory Crewdson

[Pete Askew]

One of my favourite 'modern' photographers. I have not seen his firefly series, but this is otherwise a brief, but interesting, resume of this work and, if you are not familiar, may tempt you to explore more.

Fantastic, wish I had the opportunity to go and see. Thank you for sharing Pete, I Really like the way he has done the pictures.

The pictures in the Guardian feature are sublime. I once saw a "behind-the-scenes" image of the set-up for one of his photos and it was like a movie set. He's a visionary photographer, literally as well as figuratively. Thanks for posting this, Pete.
