Just Because:

I am sure it is difficult and extremely painful, but be strong Demi!

Kudos to Michael Fassbender

Sadly, the talented Michael Fassbender did not score a deserved Oscar nomination yesterday. Fassbender is getting a ton of attention of getting naked in Shame, and although I love me some naked, I hope it does overshadow his brilliant performance.

I am going to resist sharing the caps (and they are out there already), as they are not great quality and would rather wait for a better print to cap. In the meantime however, FH contributor, not to mention one of it's popular subject, David Asset recently posted this commercial Michael did for SAS Airlines earlier in his career.

DLJ Photography: Static Fluidity

'I'm looking for models who can surf, skateboard, juggle or have a basketball.'

As most of the county continues to wade it's way through snow, rain and all that winter brings with it, I thought it might be appropriate to take, even if virtually, a return to summer and the beach. Like many, I live in a place where hanging at the beach is restricted to only a couple of months of the year, swimming in the ocean to even less. Thankfully Deej from DLJ Photography hails from Lawndale California where there are many more months not just to enjoy the beach but to utilize it as a magnificently, rent free studio.

I have always felt a pull to the ocean, especially during storms when the wind and waves join forces to create a natural museum of visual masterpieces. The beach has always been a favorite backdrop for many photographers of the male form but it was not until spending time with Deej's work and hearing how he puts his love of the location into words, that I fully understood the magic of the location.

When shooting in studio, even when working on location, your backdrop and surroundings basically remain static as you shoot. Yes, wind and rain may effect an outside set but basically if you choose to shoot a model in front of barn, behind the model remains a barn. There are a couple of locations however, that even if the model remains perfectly still, have a fluidity that create incredible differences in each shot that is taken.

'I love shooting at the beach because the ocean is so tranquil. Not only that, I can shoot in the same spot and always get a different shot because you never know how the waves will frame the model or where the light will hit and if you get it right, its like magic.'

Deej's passion for photography began as a teen but it was not until 2001 that he began working more professionally. With the exception of a few photography workshops and a ton of reading, Deej says most of his experience comes from a gut feeling of what he thinks looks good. Much of this gut feeling Deej attributes to the inspiration he takes from photographers he admires. Deej studies the work of others and creatively uses concepts he loves, putting a new spin on it, making it his own. Although I like to think most of the shots I love come from the actual taking of the shot, Deej believes some of his best shots are not made by the actual taking of the picture but through the editing process. Whatever the process, when I saw my first image from Deej, the naked surfer at the top of the feature, I knew I wanted to jump on board!

Keith Munyon's face, while it's about as flawless as a face can get, might be the part of hi you recognize first.  His body, on the other hand, is world-renowned.  At age 34, Keith's been modeling since he was 22, gracing billboards and packaging, selling everything from beer to boxer shorts.  The executives of Budweiser should be congratulated-his body certainly certainly makes us thirsty.

In College, I was All-District in football and I did lightweight boxing-which I continue to do to keep in shape.  It's a great aerobic workout!  

In my ultimate fantasy, we'd take a cruise on a clipper ship-with no else there but the crew and the captain.  We'd have dinner and I'd do all the serving.  There'd be soft music so we could have a moonlight dance after we ate....
