Every now and again I stumble across a photograph that makes me stop in my tracks (so to speak). I’d say that makes it successful, wouldn’t you? The photograph above is one such image. The photographer is Rus Anson, a student at the Academy of Art in San Francisco, USA. She’s more of a fashion photographer, which is not really my thing, but I can appreciate quality when I see it, and Rus has a knack for producing it. She has also managed to develop her own style (not to be confused with look). Quirky, whimsical, rummy… those might be some of the terms I’d use to describe it; I think her series My Circus epitomises her vision rather well.

Rus has a bright future in the industry if she decides to pursue a career in Photography. Remember you read about her on EtL first

More Beautiful Suicides here.

UPDATE (March 2010): It looks like Rus closed her old blog down and the beautiful suicides are gone. Makes me wish I had posted more of them. Her current blog is here.
