I suppose this could technically be in the large format section, but it doesn't have to be targeted at large format, let's just say this is the medium format version of this.
And what this is, is a great article I read last night about Thomas Joshua Cooper, and it concerned mainly his commitment to photography, and went through some of his exploits. And at one point, he made clear his photographic process was "Picture or Die". Haha!
But I thought, wow, now that is some level of commitment. The amazing thing is that he is still married, and she has even somehow convinced his partner to be part of this (she may have realized there wasn't a choice).
I recommend reading this article if you've ever had any days in which you're struggling to find your inspiration...
It will ask you to subscribe, but I believe it gives you a certain allotment of free articles per month:
New Yorker Article on Thomas Joshue Cooper
So what I am curious about is - what is the most extreme situation you have found yourself in to get that picture? (dire or otherwise, but extra points, I guess, for dire)
