Today I will present Les Longino, the author of One Photograph. Les is a Barcelona based photographer that publishes one photograph per post together with some thoughts in a very simple but effective maner.
I have to be honest, but his own comments to the photographs kills it for me. I would prefer to think on my own. I would suggest telling another story about those often quite abstract photographs - tell something that has nothing to do with what we really see. Make it even more interesting. Keep us and challange us.
i appreciate your honesty but in the mean time it is up to each individual how to present their own work: you have your own way to present it, les has his own way (simple and direct); we can't be all the same and that is the beauty of it.
PS: ‘Good storytelling never gives you four, it gives you two plus two … Don’t give your audience the answer; give the audience the pieces and compel them to conclude the answer.’

Of course. That was my opinion. Keep it or leave it.
