ruse and rose
October 29th, 2008
Travis Ruse is one of my heroes and I’m so glad to have found him again. This guy pretty much single handedly inspired me to start my photoblog (as well as others, though he was my first and always favourite photoblogger), and subsequently this text blog, as well as a significant contribution to my interest in street photography. Through the photoblog a wave of obsessiveness over photography in general. I have a lot of respect for him and the photographs he took for 2 (or was it 3 years) in the New York subway.
He works as the Photo Editor at Inc. Magazine, where he has worked for the last 5 years.
My rediscovery of Travis came as I noticed the video he shot of Kevin Rose‘s photo shoot for the magazine and article. Kevin Rose is the Founder of Digg.com, which I have never really used much, though have been using a little more lately as I have now become hooked on the weekly show, Diggnation, that he does with Alex Albrecht.

Here is said video. I really like the resulting photos.
