Conscientious is a weblog about photography, art, and life in general. Predominantly, you will find contemporary photography, but I am not going to try to define what future or past posts will or did contain other than saying that it's photography or art that I like(d) or stuff that I was/am interested in (incl. some politics). I am no professional photography critic, and I do not aspire to be one; hence there will be no long words. I think good photography doesn't need making too many words.

Photography has become an art form - with all the advantages and disadvantages that has for photographers. Conscientious usually ignores most aspects of the world of art. There are links to world famous photographers, whose work you can find in "important" museums, and there are links to virtually unknown photographers, many of who will never have a chance to display their work. There are also occasional samples of my own work. What all this means is that these photos are photos that I like. If you want to deduce any other statement from it that's your personal decision.

There is no need to give too many details about who I am. That's me, Jörg Colberg, pictured to the right, I'm "in my late thirties", I work as an astrophysicist, currently in Pittsburgh, USA, and I spend a lot of my spare time on photography. I have my own personal photography website (typically hopelessly outdated). If you want to get in touch please do so, I like feedback (joerg at jmcolberg.com).
