One of the greatest things about this modern age of the internet is the way we can keep in touch with each other and share photographs, as illustrated by our recent Flickr run down. Where would we be without those people actually taking the photographs and sharing them.
One of the best of these generous people is Pixeleye.de, better known as Dirk Behlau to his family.
A professional photographer and designer, offering the complete package to his clients. He has been taking photographs at the age of six and has been shooting professionally for the last eight years. In his own words "I am not focussed to a special theme, it just has to rock for me." That’s an attitude we can relate to.
His photographs cover everything from hot rods and pinups to bands and bmx, he first caught our attention with his coverage of the German drag racing scene. He likes to photograph "all the kool lifestyle" and that meeting people is what makes the job so great.
He has his photography collected in a book called
Speed Kings and should be working on a follow up volume this year. Amongst the many shows and events he'll be doing this year he will be at
Rod & Custom show in Hungary and the
Bottrop Kustom Kulture, both of which look like very cool events.
There is so much information to check out you should probably hit up his websites.
