I especially enjoy viewing:
documentary portraiture
lo-fi (even fake) images
subtlety
quotidian details vividly rendered
forgotten/neglected corners
the odd moment
I currently take pictures with:
Nikon D70s with a few basic lenses
Minox-Leica M3 miniature toy camera
Canon PowerShot something-or-other point and shoot
the webcam on my iMac
(not necessarily in that order)
Most inspiring photographers, at the moment:
Joel Meyerowitz
Andreas Gursky
Robert Frank
Taryn Simon

"I love looking at Karen's photographs. Whether the subject is a cup of coffee, family, friends or strangers she seems to capture the joys of life in so many of her photos. A wonderful sense of humor in her captions and captures, beautiful colors, and a photostream that is guaranteed to make you smile.
My favorites are her portraits. She seems to have a magical ability to get people to relax which allows her to capture that look or expression that makes you feel as if you know the person. It's no wonder she's a courageous enough soul to tackle the 100 strangers project (which is where I first noticed her work)."2nd February, 2008
