Cool article on Hiroshi Sugimoto:

...some interesting info on his technique is included: I've heard of doding a photo before, but never dodging a scene!

Sugimoto is one of my favorite photographers, despite the mystical aura his works gets wrapped in (often by himself). The "dodging a scene" technique is similar in spirit to what people do with light painting--sort of dodging and burning live (and, yes, wearing all black, with black gloves).
