ジャーナル |イメージの裏側、フレームの向こう側

このジャーナルは、製品ページには決して掲載されない仕事、旅行、静かな瞬間など、私がカーテンを引く場所です。それはフィールドノートでもあり、個人史でもあり、創造的な考察でもあります。ここでは、旅先での物語、放棄された場所、忘れられた物体、そして予期せぬ美しさについての考えを見つけることができます。これはチュートリアルや機材リストに関するものではありません。なぜ私が走り続けるのか、その過程で見つけたもの、そして人工的なものに傾きつつある世界において本物の写真がいかに重要であるかについてです。

ジャーナル

Heading to Vietnam

Waiting in Toronto's airport lounge, I'm looking forward to Vietnam more than the long journey there. I share the anticipation of travelling with my wife and camera, with plans to explore and the uncertainty of what photographs I will bring home.

Ten Hours Inside the Toronto G20 Police Kettling at King and Spadina

I rode into Toronto with a Leica M9 to photograph the 2010 G20 protests and spent ten hours inside the police kettling at King and Spadina. I share a photograph from that experience and the circumstances that kept me at the intersection.

カナダのビッグアップルコルバーンオンタリオ

A giant red apple beside Highway 401 persuaded me to stop and take a closer look. I share a photographer's visit to the Big Apple in Colborne, from its working bakery to the unexpected shapes and roadside details worth noticing.

写真の私の旅:40年の本物の本物の仕事

My first Kodak camera led to a darkroom, a Pentax and decades of looking through a lens. I trace that journey through changing equipment and expectations, explaining why real encounters, sustained attention and the finished print still matter to my work.

スコットランド航空ショー:最高の空中パフォーマンスのハイライト

The aircraft drew me to Ayr's Scottish International Airshow, but the shoreline and watching crowds helped shape the photographs. I look back at flying displays, vintage aircraft and the atmosphere along the seafront, distinguishing that visit from later events in Ayr.

ホグ島灯台ナッソーバハマ

Hog Island Lighthouse makes a small, clear landmark beside Nassau Harbour. I look at the relationship between its white tower, a foreground channel marker and the open sea, exploring how a simple coastal arrangement can hold a photograph together.

オーストラリアは砂漠を頂点にします

ナンブン国立公園のピナクルズ砂漠を通り抜ける。 公園自体には、公園を通る石灰岩の砂利道があります。

Dan Kosmayer Launches Etsy Store

I've opened an Etsy store to give people another way to discover my photography prints. I share the reasons behind that step, the real places and encounters within the work, and my curiosity about which photographs will find a place in someone's home.

Market with bugs to eat China

At a Beijing food market, trays of scorpions, spiders and larvae gave my wife and me plenty to consider. I share the encounter through photographs, looking at the displays, repeated shapes and curiosity that make markets such interesting places to explore.

A Night in Havana That Taught Me to Pay Attention

A friendly encounter in Havana became an evening that made me reassess the situation around me. I recount what happened and reflect on attention, trust and boundaries while travelling, alongside the curiosity that continues to draw me back to photographing Cuba.

Groucho and the Little Tramp

A glimpse of a mural changed the direction of our walk through Winnipeg's Exchange District. I recount finding Groucho and the Little Tramp, and reflect on the way public art interrupts an ordinary outing and persuades me to bring out the camera.

戦争写真博物館の探索ザグレブ:歴史の旅

Visiting Zagreb's war photography museum prompted personal questions about my Croatian family and the lives recorded in its images. I reflect on that earlier visit, the human weight of documentary photographs and what I carried back into the streets afterward.
