Continuing the pimping (not in the Chelsea kind of way) of Hollywood’s actors and Oscar nominees, NY Times Magazine has an article featuring the people they thought were the breakthrough actors of 2007.

For the past couple weeks I’ve had Kim Høltermand’s site bookmarked, and I’ve been checking in on it every few days. Kim is from Frederiksberg, Denmark, and takes some of the moodiest, most beautiful photos I’ve seen. He has an incredible knack for extreme lights and darks, muted colors, and an affinity for the the sun. It’s also kind of interesting that’s he’s updated his site 3 times in the last week.

The two images above are from two different series, the clock from ‘After School‘ and the phone booth from ‘A Desolate Place‘. Also be sure to check out his other series, which are just as intriguing.
