Apparently I’m on a photography kick right now…but if I keep stumbling on shutterbugs like Erol Taskoparan, I don’t have a problem with that at all; his work is a mix of street and personal photography that never fails to capture a certain tranquility and, occasionally, sexuality in his subject matter. Self-taught since 2002, Erol describes his themes as subjective-emotional, street, portrait, and fashion.

He is also co-editor of online art magazine neocollective.com and co-owner of The Bureau for Visual Communication, both also well worth a look. Great inspiration all around.
