Palm trees overlooking the ocean.

Palm trees overlooking the ocean.

There’s something so serene but also very Miami Vice-ish in this shot, right?

I wanted a shot of the World Clock. What I got was so much better.

Another oldie - from back before I realized not every shot had to be taken wide open 🫠

The back entrance to Kino Babylon - one of the oldest standing cinemas in Berlin.

The back entrance to Kino Babylon - one of the oldest standing cinemas in Berlin.

Shot this in Berlin a few years ago, but it never felt right in the edit — until now. I think I’ve finally caught up to what I saw that night.

I call it "Eternity with angels and ghosts"

Students have been protesting Serbia’s corrupt regime for the past six months. I took this shot a few nights before the massive March 15th protest, as students from across the country marched toward the capital.

Wow, stunning! Laser sharp shots too. I'm not really a gearhead, but would love to learn what you used for these.

Sun sets over Danube and the Gazela bridge in Belgrade, Serbia.

Sun sets over Danube and the Gazela bridge in Belgrade, Serbia.

Sitting outside a mall, waiting for my screening of Thunderbolts to start, the sparkle of sunlight on the water caught my eye. Wish I'd had a better lens on me, though. Still, the sparkle doth sparkle, despite everything else being kinda muddy.

One of my better shots from Plaza de España last year — and a reminder to experiment more with black and white.

Having said that, it was a fun 2 hours at the theatre.

Oh and it looks horrible and lifeless. Which could have been a thematic thing if handled better, but as is just feels like a grey, lazy mess.

Thunderbolts* (2025) After finding themselves ensnared in a death trap, seven disillusioned castoffs must embark on a dangerous mission that will force them to confront the darkest corners of their pasts.

It’s true, Thunderbolts* is the best Marvel has been since Endgame.

Yet it still boils down to a tonally dissonant live-action version of Inside Out 🤷‍♂️

Just engaging in the act of creating something — anything — and especially art, is ambitious as hell in my book

A homeless man rests next to columns at Largo di Torre Argentina in Rome.

There’s a lot I love about this shot — not least that I managed to capture a tourist-free frame anywhere near a Roman ruin. But what I probably love most is the name I gave it:

“Interlude at Pompey’s.”

Daguerreotype with Jerry Spagnoli 30.–31. May 2025

We still get to do our thing, no harm, no foul.

I mean, there are people today still developing daguerreotypes.

So yeah, traditional photography ain’t going nowhere fast.

And for those who value tradition? Those of us who just want to snap shots of the world as it is and use every tool at out disposal (except generative AI) to make it prettier?

Maybe we don’t yell at clouds and instead try to see things for what they really are.

Some artists will find great, innovative, mind-bending uses for generative AI.

Others will pale in comparison.

And we, as a society, will recognize the difference, just as we always have.

So maybe the role of photography isn’t changing all that much.

Maybe it’s as fake as it’s ever been.

And maybe generative AI will just bring a new layer of fakeness to the art - no different than what photoshop and digital retouching did in their day.

This got me thinking of my post from the other day, about the role of photography changing with the advance of generative AI, and the whole “what can we even trust any more” dilemma.

But even Sontag is careful to say that, in photos, reality only “seems proven”.

Watching “The B-Side” and at one point Elsa Dorfman is asked whether she thinks the camera tells the truth.

Her answer:

“Absolutely not.”

And she’s 100% right.

Sun sets between two palm trees in Cádiz, Spain.

Snapped this from the parking lot after a relaxing beach day in Cádiz. For me, it captures both the city’s vibe and the feel of that day.

Did some tramspotting during a recent trip to Lisbon. This is one of my favorite shots from the session.

Plus it has one of the best renditions of Rocky Road to Dublin I’ve ever heard in my half-Irish life. I was blasting that shit in the car on my way home

Sinners (2025) Trying to leave their troubled lives behind, twin brothers return to their hometown to start again, only to discover that an even greater evil is waiting to welcome them back.

Just came out of Sinners and I can’t stop thinking about that one scene. I didn’t even know it was possible to be grinning while your jaw is laying flat on the floor, fucking hell that was pure magic.

This shot was more discovered than it was taken. I was actually shooting someone else to the right of this guy, but noticed him in post and decided he was much more interesting than my original subject.

Don't you love when that happens.

Anyway, you can check out Sontag's full essay here. It's a great read, regardless of your stance on photography, AI, silly old men, or even reality itself: openlab.citytech.cuny.edu/chengphotoar...
