And You May Ask Yourself, How Did I Get Here?

If you're feeling some January angst and wondering how life has dealt you a perplexing steer, then have a look at this career history from the New York photographer and esteemed blogger, Dave Beckerman. I'm a big fan of the guy's work, who most deals in black and white in the classic reportage style. He definitely has the vision, the humanity and the sense of poetry. He's delivered dozens of impressive frames, but my current favourite is this snowflake image that's magnificently timed and composed. It's like the universe has revealed itself in a micro-second, and Beckerman has the savvy and the self-possession to catch it. His career path is ungainly and rather mad, but I'm so glad that he's currently where he ought to be.
