I have been going through some of pbase‘s favorite galleries and came across one by someone who calls himself Knox. Of his photos there are two collections that really impressed me the one of Paris / London and one about City Cats.
It is not often that someone takes good photos of cats, they all tend to be a cliche or just a snap of a kitty, this guy though has a collection of absolutely stunning photos of cats in NYC. The collection is part of a book of which more can be read on its site http://alleycatphotos.com/. From this site is a short bio of Knox:
Always seeking the perfect and pure musical note, Knox can be found in both recording and photographic studios from NYC to Katmandu. Around age 5 he was amazed at “the feel” of the first 35mm camera he stole. The sound you hear in a New York City alley could very well be coming from the bottom of a dumpster – a man in black, coaxing a little kitty to “smile for the camera.” He is well maintained by Lukas, a Giant Schnauzer of disreputable character.
Knox can be reached by e-mail at <email removed>
and boasts numerous Web sites, including www.AvatarPhotoArt.com and www.ArcadiaRocks.com.
It does not look like their book is published, I would certainly buy a copy when it comes out.
