"it's to disturb, to make you think, to make you feel."
Richard Avedon:

there are two dirty words in photography: good taste and art'
Helmut Newton

"Never in the field of human history has so much been used by so many to say so little" - Banksy on modern art.

Just because theres a naked female in a photo, does not make it good. CC

Your work is excellent and continues to evolve. You should be in LA or NYC building up the portfolio. Great work, and congratulations on the feature!

Posted on 2008-11-21 21:22:25 - m.c.gilbert
And another thing dude: you take loads of credit and always fail to give it out! must be lonely in that self obsessed world of yours,or do people in the same realms as you become opponents for your space?????
Posted on 2008-11-21 21:29:23 - m.c.gilbert

Carl Erik

Posted on 2008-11-22 10:45:01 - m.c.gilbert
m.c.gilbert, seriously? I GIVE OUT CREDIT ALL THE TIME. grow up. self obsessed? i wont even waste my time with you on this site.
Posted on 2008-11-22 11:28:51 - Chad Coombs
Erik, as soon as i shoot some new stuff, ill pop it up on. other wise feel free to click my website for now. as per credit, i guess gil forgot to read my bio witch are not my quotes, buyt oh well. smart people cant read.
Posted on 2008-11-22 11:30:08 - Chad Coombs
126 sites you moron,and you commented on 5!!! three cheers for you! All the time? And yes, the quotes are not yours! exactly my point! Promote the SELF!
Posted on 2008-11-22 15:09:49 - m.c.gilbert

SELF

In one of your shots you showed us you were masturbating over YOURSELF:OBSESSED my friend.Say no more before you embarrass yourself further!
Posted on 2008-11-22 15:22:44 - m.c.gilbert
And finally, as soon as someone has something negative to say, you blow! Learn to take criticism Chad as the world will give you heaps. I actually love your stuff. I was first to comment! Pity you didn't follow up on mine.
Posted on 2008-11-22 15:46:08 - m.c.gilbert
Carl, I apologies for the comment M.C felt the need to give you. I hope everyone can be civil in these parts. The internet is a great tool but as all tools are, many tools them selfs feel the need to use them.
Posted on 2008-11-22 17:58:25 - Chad Coombs
" same realms as you" I live in a basement apartment, in a small town in the middle of no were so to speak. I am in no realm other then no mans land, ha.
Posted on 2008-11-22 19:02:48 - Chad Coombs
as per credit, the photos do not allow text, and the bio space is so small. so next time maybe take a moment to think before jumping to assumptions please.
Posted on 2008-11-22 19:03:09 - Chad Coombs
OH sorry MC Gil, i didnt know you ment credit as wonder around this site and tell everyone how awesome they are. i just signed up maybe a month ago or so, havent had much time. you got pretty upset pretty quick here my friend
Posted on 2008-11-23 12:38:52 - Chad Coombs
i apologies if i havent given enough time to this site yet, i have other things i am required to do with my life as well. as per the masturbating image, you should look at the images purpose, it was a Seven deadly sin my friend, PRIDE.
Posted on 2008-11-23 12:41:08 - chad Coombs
as per the negativity, when its a direct attack on my and not my photos, yeah i take it personally, if its against the photos, then i will see that reasoning.
Posted on 2008-11-23 12:43:34 - chad Coombs
it looks like you just got mad i didnt reply to you fast enough. next time dont jump the gun. the trigger talk wont get you any were. this site needs longer commenting options
Posted on 2008-11-23 12:44:00 - chad Coombs

Naked Females

A photo does not have to be good, but there should be a naked female in it.
Posted on 2008-11-29 11:02:52 - Sven Erik
HA i was wondering how long it would be till someone commented on that line.
