This blog series is created by choosing a photograph by a photographer who's work I greatly appreciate, that photographer picks a photograph by another photographer, that photographer picks a photograph by another photographer, and so on until a chain of five photographs have been created.
The structure is based on the book Poets Picking Poets published by McSweeney's in 2007. Applying this technique to photography and photographers, allowing them to choose their own tablemates, will surely spark some interesting visual conversations that will be diverse and surprising.
