"when I came back to my hometown, a little hometown in Alabama, I asked myself, what in the world I am going to do. I mean, I got this training and all this talent and, well, supposedly I had some talent. But there was really nothing I could be doing with that – unless I moved to some big city." "I found out that the newspapers in Montgomery needed a photographer. So I got a job and it turned my life around. I mean it literally turned my life around. Because I had found something that’s more important than fashion or commercial or whatever, or even more important than money. And that is what you can do with a newspaper and what you can do in telling stories."

Julian Roder- Young & Angry
From the series Lagos Transformation, Private bus taxi at the Badagry Road expansion project at the Odun Ade bus stop, Lagos, Nigeria, 2009
From the series Love & Destruction, Jana and Christian, Baden, 2004
Recently I stumbled upon the German photographer Julian Roder, whom is quickly becoming one of my favorite photographers out there! I feel that his work definitely has roots in in the Gurskey-Becher schools while at the same time exhibits a strong influence in street photography. Which of course results in awesomeness in my book. Julian Roder is currently one of four runners up for the Aperture Foundations Portfolio Prize and he is a finalist for this years Magnum Expression awards. His work is currently on exhibit at the Rotterdam Netherlands Fotomuseum, check him out at: http://www.julianroeder.com/contact
