The Most Expensive Picture
Upload your photo­graph for just one dollar more than the per­son before you. Buy into «TMEP». The amount paid per photo rises with the number of uploads. The first partic­ipant pays one dollar; each subsequent us­er af­ter that can claim the ti­tle of having the «The Most Expensive Pic­ture» and enjoy having his/her pic­ture posted in large-scale on our site. Once uploaded, the pic­ture will be blocked for at least one hour. The mon­ey transfer is done by PayPal. As soon as you’ve been out­bid, your pic­ture will be automat­ically trans­ferred to the «Archive» where you have the ability to nav­igate through all the pre­vi­ously uploaded pic­tures. So, why would anybody pay for uploading his own Pic­ture..?

My good friend Brian W. Ferry just informed me his first book “Quality Of Life” is out today…

Quality Of Life, a collection of photographs by Brian W. Ferry. Brian is an American-born, self-taught photographer currently residing in London, UK. He has contributed work to publications from other independent publishers such as Lines & Shapes and Kinfolk Magazine, as well as completing commissions for the likes of Starbucks and Ralph Lauren.

The images included in Quality Of Life were pulled from the vast quantity of photographs that Brian took between January 2010 and January 2011, his first year living in London. Many of them were first shared on his popular blog The Blue Hour, and neatly encapsulate what he has said sums up the nature of his work: a desire to document the small and often seemingly unexceptional moments of day to day life, capturing these quietly beautiful details and making visual diary entries, allowing us to dwell on them with him.
