HOLLOW DOUBT - the best of both worlds

Some people live life wanting to live the best of both worlds whether its wishing they owned a truck when their moving instead of a car or wishing they lived this world just a little bit taller...well if your into quality photography and the street art scene Hollow Doubt just made your world come true. Very recently the blog Melrose & Fairfax took them selves out of the blog game. Maybe the passion was lost or maybe it was feeling the pressure of websites/Instagrams like Hollow Doubt. An Iphone camera can only do so much. Until you learn how to play with a DSLR you will live life flatter than those who do. Hollow Doubt knows how to do it. There website is wordless, the name is random, the photos are interesting, the entire concept is smooth. The world just got better.

Melrose & Fairfax - Street art blog - calling it quits

So if you enjoy street art, one of the great city's to get your fix on is Los Angeles. It is an ever changing scene and to watch it unfold is an entertaining & inspiring experience. For the past handful of years Melrose & Fairfax was able to capture what it can in there walks or drives around the city. The blog created a fame for some artist that would get up everywhere but the fame for some of them artists wasn't always a positive thing. M&F was very opinionated and if they didn't like what they saw in the streets they would create a post that would express all there negative thoughts. STRIKE one... M&F has claimed to be the #1 street art blog in the U.S. so the power of there perception was strong. If you were an artists that wasn't liked by M&F you would know about it and they had a bunch of readers that would robotically agree. A very scary thought if your trying to get your name out in the LA scene. Often the blog would post there own paste ups and stickers and speak third party about it but that is just shameless promotion, you cant mark them for that. But a good thing, a majority of the blog posts were purely the documentation of art that didn't last too long, a very interesting blog to watch. Now that they threw in the towel, what will you do now?......Instagram has all the photos you need of the street art scene. So, in the end, it was a good run for Melrose & Fairfax, it will not soon be forgotten.The simple camera from an iphone, dedication, a skateboard, and a dog is proven to be all you need to start a blog. Get up Stay up!
