The Genius of Photography

In the course of our 170 year relationship, photography has delighted us, served us, moved us, outraged us and occasionally disappointed us. But mainly, it has intrigued us by showing the secret strangeness that lies beneath the world of appearances. And that is photography's true genius.
Follow the story of photography in BBC Four's six-part series 'The Genius of Photography'. See some of the most famous photographs ever taken and find out more about what made them so very special.

Phil Toledano has some interesting work. Days With My Father is what led me to him but he has several good projects to look at on his site including Phone Sex, A New Kind of Beauty and America the Gift Shop.

My father is very funny.
I put these little cookies on his chest, and he said-’look at my titties!’
How can you not laugh?

William Eggleston's "Stranded in Canton"

Shot in 1974 with a Sony Porta-Pak, the crazily careering Stranded in Canton documents a cast of hard-drinking Southerners with the intimacy, ease and instability of a seasoned participants.
