How did Dart get it? I don't know exactly how he got it, but it was easy enough for me to find. It's in the Galleries section of Taino's website (http://www.flowingthought.com/).
I'm no huge art afficiando (spelling) or anything, but with the exception of the self protriats section, the rest of the gallery seems pretty good.

09-16-2003, 07:56 AM
If I post a public link to my public site where I have photography shown of myself and naked skin, then I expect the ARo Community to go nuts about it, call me fag, make fun of my work and whatever. Took you pretty long actually, way longer then I expected. I'm disappointed.
The reason why "the euro's" aren't answering is simply because they'd just get flamed and insulted by you, I guess.
Good work with the goat, that was kinda funny actually.
Dunno I m wondering if I should ask if someone know greek art but I M worried some american might post that greece is in south of afrika or some shit like that :(
Its his site he can do whatever he wants there and anyway his photos are pretty good as a whole. I m not too much into autoportrait but why not.
Look like a bunch of homophobic people to me :)
Taino
09-16-2003, 08:02 AM
Oh by the way, I'd be interested to know why "all pictures but the self portraits are damn good": Is the quality of the picture suddenly crappy in this section? So I am a good photographer unless I capture myself? Right? Is it the fact that you can see the back of a male person? BUt mostly you just see my face. Or is it that every picture, no matter how and what, is immediately absolutely ugly and painful to look at, as soon as I am on it?
Very mature, are we?
You're not getting blind looking at a picture of a male face/body, get the fuck over it.
So I'm asking again... why are all the pictures good but the self portraits? I'm always looking for constructive feedback. So, give it to me.

Shewdogg
09-16-2003, 09:44 AM
Taino, simply put, your narcissism combined with your attitude on these boards to the general masses that read them aren't going to be your most favorable critics. If I was on TV proclaiming that I hate black people and that we should ship them all to Africa, then naturally I won't hang out in Harlem trying to befriend everyone and asking "Y teh U haet meh?"
Your photography on a professional level I will say isn't too great though. Especially the recurrent theme of blurring out all but a single image. The self photos are lacking in substance (no pun intended) with each photograph you should try and tell a story through your picture, thats what makes it art. That's the difference between a picture of me at Sea World waving at Shamu and Ansel Adams.
Instead of black and white, try using tint colors to express emotion, since it appears you are using a digital camera and running the photos through a computer altering program.
Don't get butt-hurt by anything I'm saying, it's not like that. You'll only become good through experience so keep at it, regardless of how good/bad you and others think your work is.

Taino
09-16-2003, 10:05 AM
your narcissism combined with your attitude on these boards
You confuse narcism with the simple fact that I do not at all times have a willing model standing around in my appartment when I take pictures. I take pictures of myself to get better at photography because it is a rather rare hapening that I do have a model with me that is here for a photoshooting, althou it happens, rarely. When you want to take pictures of people, portraits and want to get better, then you have to
1. have 10 models in your appartment at all times so you can practise all the time or
2. have a wife that is at all times willing to play model for you or
3. take pictures of yourself, again and again...
And someone with a little bit of taste and brain would be able to make a difference between what I say on this forum and my pictures. You know there are people that are able to say things like "hey, I dislike him, he's an asshole, but his pictures aren't bad".
You know I dislike Michael Schumacher. He's an asshole, but he's the best fucking formula 1 pilot there is. See, its easy.
I was expecting this thread since a LONG time, really and it doesn't bother me at all. But I also have no problem discussing it. It just shows how fucking stupid some people are. They go all nuts about OMG a half naked man on a picture! OMG WTF! Ewwww how ugly, I am blind omg!!!!
If I were a woman and would make the same pictures you'd all go "Woooooo!!!!!!!!!".
See how fucked up this is? Just because I am male, just because I am Taino that you dislike, my pictures (esp. the ones of myself) are shitty and ugly and gay by default. *cheer*
Thanks for the general critizism tho Shew. I tend to disagree in several of your arguments and could say why you're not correct, but this is not the point. Critizism like yours is to be read and kept in mind, it will, like all critizism, help me to get better.

Oh and Xanaron, I have enough pictures with my dick on it. You're way way fucking closer to owing me 2000$ then you are aware of. Don't make me post them.
I personally dont give a shit about who sees my dick or any parts of my body. Its my body and you have a dick aswell, so its not breaking news, is it? See we have a slightly different understanding and relation to the human body. So don't make me having you paying me 2000$, cause I could use the cash.

wrong. its more than enough if you can give the viewer an impression/emotion or just shock them and make them thing for a sec.

Well I could care less bout the US vs Euro content on the boards but I will give props to taino for his pics.
To answer your questoin taino. I don't personally like self portraits as a complete ameture photorapher, I enjoy most Scenery shots or Native shots (aka like your life on the streets photo's) For me they are just more fun to shoot and to view. Self portraits or Portraits of say individual models just don't seem to catch as much about life as do more broad landscapes.
Call it personal taste, nothing wrong with your self portraits but as a viewer I liked your Street life photo's and your night time shots the best.
Taino
09-16-2003, 03:11 PM
Thanks for the feedback Kahla. I agree with you. All the different series have their own beauty (or not), their own style. Some like this more, some others. I know people that like my selfportraits the most.
As a photographer without a big name, you must be able to take pictures of everything. Once you are good, you have a name, you are known, then you can specialize yourself to this or that. However, portraits are what most photographers do for a living. Everyone likes good pictures form themselves or the ones they love. To make a living out of "scenery" or "streelife" pics, you must be damn lucky.
So in order to learn everyhting and at one point hopefully master all different kind of pictures, I take shots of everything and as mentioned, not having amodel around all the time, I capture myself.

Taino
09-16-2003, 05:02 PM
After all Shew, Art is still in the eye of the beholder.
It is a perfectly acceptable judgement if you say "I really odn't like your stuff". Because if this is the way you feel, this is it. Noone is able to create art that everyone likes. For me as a wanna be artist, it is important to find out what most people like, because this is the only way to create things that will also give me a future. But at the end, you always also have to do what you like and love.
There IS good and bad photography.
But there are thousands of perfectly "good" pictures that I really don't like a lot. And this is how it should be.
I am gathering feedback because I want to get it. Becuase feedback helps me to improve. And feedback like "i really like this and that and you are a good photographer" helps just as much as "I don't like it at all, especially this and that sucks".
One thing is flattering, one thing isn't. But it brings me forward.

09-16-2003, 05:41 PM
I came across your gallery a while back after I wanted to see what your flowingthought.com domain was about. While I really like the other shots, I think most people have a problem with the self portraits because they seem to convey a forced tone. It seems like you're struggling to come up with shots that show the "serious, brooding" artist within you and don't reflect a true emotional state. I do commend you for posting that stuff, knowing people would eventually bring it here to flame you.
Keep up the good work.
Selwen Soulgazer
09-16-2003, 05:46 PM
The camera work is very good. I didnt care much for the self portraits only because of the,for lack of a better term,harshness of the angles. Im not saying they arent good,im saying that they arent my style.
As,far as the nude ones go I am more into female subjects. No that is not homophobic,just a matter of taste. I got to give ya credit for havin the balls to do them though.

usually i disagree with many of the comments that taino has on these boards. after viewing your website and checking out your pics I am more inclined to change my mind about the quality of a person taino is. In my opinion (not that it means very much) your art is pretty good even the self portraits. I may even consider ordering one of your secenry pics. If some of the others can't handle the naked pics oh well I see no problems with them they were done in a tasteful manner. Keep up the good work.

What i like is just your overall sense of u dont give a shit about who thinks about your work - you photograph your inner feelings and move those feelings onto film...
keep on expressing yourself and im sure one day someone will recognize the true talent thats building up inside your mind

usually i disagree with many of the comments that taino has on these boards. after viewing your website and checking out your pics I am more inclined to change my mind about the quality of a person taino is
If I draw a really really pretty picture will you be my friend too?!?!

ain really is that the best you can come up with? Just because I make a comment that maybe tainos not the complete ass I always thought he was doesn't mean I wanna be friends with him. I just happen to be man enough to admit that I have respect for his work and what he is trying to do. If that makes it sound like i'm asskissing oh well I care less what few children think of me.

Thank you Piyn and Jilo. :D
I could and would also offer other pictures for sale if ohne you'd order is not being offered as Print by the way. It takes a few hours to prepare a photo as print version, so I don't do it just for giggles as I am not really selling a lot yet. Just let me know.
Ail...
No, it is not true that just because I take pictures I am not eurotrash anymore, I am not a Bush lover due to it or whatever. But I guess what Piyn meant is that my website and my work shows a completely different and new side of "Taino" then the one you read on this forum. Being "a stupid euro trash asshole" is not the center of my life. Its actually a very small part of it. Its just my political opinion that I offer on this forum. I hardly ever hold those discussions with anyone else in my life. Besides our arguments on this forum I am an artist by heart. I am very emotional, I love harmony and peace over everything, the beauty of life and people is what inspires me. You all on this board know about 1% of who I am. And, of course, you judge me by it. If you look at my website, you see somehting compeltely else. And some people are open enough to admit that this changes their opinion a little. Because they see that my photography is the center of my life and means a lot to me and defines me more or less, whereas we on this forum just exchange a few silly flames about whether Bush is an asshole or not.
Does this make me his friend? I don't think so. But it may hopefully make me something else then just "a shitty eurotrash asshole" in his eyes.
I don't like to argue. I never ever argue in RL. Never! Fights and arguments are wasted time to me. Unfortunately I do have a strong opinion about politics and unfortunately we keep having those discussions on this forum. You make hints, "we" make hints and we always end up hitting on eachother about it.

For me as a wanna be artist, it is important to find out what most people like, because this is the only way to create things that will also give me a future
Like you said Art aint something that will please everyone. and i think you go the wrong way when you try to adapt your art to the peoples taste. just do it and see if they like it or not. if they dont, it doesnt make much sense to change your style and make people love it, because then its not art anymore, its just taking pictures like everyone can.

Sharookan:
I will in no way "just do what people like to see". In no way at all. This is not how I work.
However, it is still useless to try to live from doing somehting that brings absolutely no money.
The goal is to find a way to combine doing what I love with what people actually will spend money for. I need to know what kind of pictures people like. But, the only pictures I offer are ones I love to take anyways. So I will do what I love and the way I love and then I will see what pictures people like the most. Its not just a "do what people love" thing. But "what people love" is usually also the best work, quality wise.
Even if I end up taking pictures of "people on the street" for the rest of my life, I will still have to take "photoshooting portraits" if this the one thing how I can earn a living, if you get my point. But, I will never let other people force me into doing somehting I don't like at all. At the moment I am there, I don't like my job a lot, and this is why I work on photography, to change that :)

Relax Halo..
Busting balls is an American pastime... It wasnt even that much..
Looked at gallery.. I liked 2 of the pictures alot.. the 2 in street life with the old men. One with the pair on the bench and the other the guy with the bottle of spring water.
Very Rembrant-ish in taking interest in the ordinary and overlooked.
Dont like pictures of when people pose though or know they are being photographed.

We ordered a print and it took about 2 weeks shipping. The price of the picture was withdrawn from our CC about 1 week after we ordered and I suggest going for the 9,95$ shipping to make sure you get that picture in tip top shape..
Taino does a great job as a starting artist and I hope to see more work from him :)

The site is 100% secure. You must register with your name and CC info, but you will never recieve any spam mail or "eMail notifications" other then the shipping status of your order. I tested it all and its a highly trusted site. In fact I payed money to have my store there. This is where they make cash. Not from eMail spam. You will never ever recieve anything form this site other then shipping status and notifications about your order(s).
The prices I ask are exactly the prices for a) printing and b) shipping. I do at this point not earn a dime.
If you wish to order one of the pictures in my gallieries that I did not offer a print version yet, please let me know. It takes me a few hours to prepare a print, but I can make a print version out of 95% of those pictures. Size differs between 3x5inches till like 30x50 inches. I am more then willing to prepare a print version just for you, if you want. To have someone interested in buying my art is worth much more to me then any money I get from it (right now, at one point I'll ask money so I can live from it.. but not yet, I'm not good enough).
Thank you for your comments and entries in the guestbook, I highly appreciate it.

Well Taino, as much as I think you are a big fucking tool in many respects, that doesn't mean I hate your ass (not that I want to see it) and will bandwagon bash anything and everything you do or think.
At any rate. I skipped the nekkid Taino photogs and checked out some of the other ones, and I'd have to say that those are some pretty damn good shots. Very good work, keep at it...you seem to have a good eye.
That is all, as you were...

Nope, did a stint on Vagizelle for a while to hang out with some friends I talked into playing, and then just plain didn't play for a while. (I was still irked about the monk nerf that was "somewhat reversed"...and therfore being a crybaby about it at the time. Now I'm feeling much better and back to being fulltime asshole.)
Halo? I've noticed your ability to focus on a tree, and miss the whole fucking point of the forest. "Look at how bad this tree is! LOOK! LOOK! BAAAAD TREE!" Good to see dumbasses are a constant, much like -9.8m/s^2.
Don't come to me with "look at the American talking" horseshit. I wasted four years of my life in your country. I doubt you have the ability to say the same about the US. Gimme a call when your oral hygiene standards surpass "horse", OK?
