- I might listen to you if you used a real name to respond to. That said, I would NEVER assign or commission photography and not pay for it. This venture isn’t making money for me as the curator, or for the person who is putting out the online magazine. What we offer is a platform for someone who has work they would like to expose to a larger audience. I’d really like to know what is wrong with that. Thanks.
— Stella Kramer on Stellazine: Call for Photojournalism - Seeing that the new Canon 400 2.8 is 11,000 dollars, I wonder how much Canon will charge for these lenses
— JP on Rob Galbraith DPI: New 500mm f/4, 600mm f/4 in development, says Canon - “There is, unfortunately, no payment.” Despicable crooks!
— Fook Yu on Stellazine: Call for Photojournalism - I don’t believe photojournalism is dead at all. It has become a form of art over the years and people take note of every great photo in a newspaper
— HTS on Is Photojournalism Dead? We Almost Hate To Ask : The Picture Show : NPR - No it’s not dead yet however we are at a stage where the public is more visually illiterate than ever. The respect for photography is at rock bottom. IMO Digital has devalued the image in some ways, turned many photos into pure illustrations and have convinced enough people that a bad image with alot PS is good enough. Great, natural documentary imagery bores most cause they would rather see Paris Hiltons “up skirt” shots on some tacky site and a long form essay. Photojournalism is not...
— david on Is Photojournalism Dead? We Almost Hate To Ask : The Picture Show : NPR - I’ve always been a Nikon fan. This is a wonderful camera, it is worth buying only for the 14 megapixels
— Rodir on Nikon D3100 with 1080p Video | Gadget Lab - Wow, that’s just weird of them to do forbid people that
— Proiecte case on FBI claims no one may publish its seal – Boing Boing - Oh, wow, this guy is hillarious! Some people just live in a different world where wars and violence is cool
— Marty on Will the real Rambo please stand up? - Like how stupid is that? Shows you what kind of intelligence we have got working thier.
— Ed Hamlin on FBI claims no one may publish its seal – Boing Boing - WOW! I think both parties gone overboard. There are standards and professional ethics that need to be adhered to. The freelancer shows a lack of skills and integrity, they can be resolved mentorship/counseling and extra effort to rebuild credibility in the relationship. However when you publically put the guy on the carpet humiliating him like you did creats a potential legal problem. But I guess it is okay to totally humiliate people with out regard for their life and how they make a living. Getty may have...
— Ed Hamlin on Getty Photographer Dropped Over Altered Golf Photo – PDN Pulse - It’s really not a surprise. I’m not knocking all of the residents of afgakistan but loyalties only run as deep as the laundry list of stuff you can give leaders and politicians down to the regional leader. This may seem a bit inflamitory, too bad it is history repeating itself with different players. Take a look before you beat me up. FYI, I am retired military and I am not in favor of an extended stay without quick results. and low loss of life except the bad guys.
— Ed Hamlin on The War Logs – NYTimes.com - Yes, he should have been let go. Not acceptable in any editorial context.
— JP on Getty Photographer Dropped Over Altered Golf Photo – PDN Pulse - I think this is a good decision by the Goverment. This section 44 should not have been used in the first place anyway – randomly checking anybody they like. I think it goes with previous Govt policy or police policy of increasing the number of checks and not looking at the quality of checks. I have been searched myself in London’s financial district where I work. Also I have seen many old people being checked which I thought is extreme waste of policing time....
— Dave on Home Office hands victory to photographers, restricts use of Section 44 – British Journal of Photography - What kills me is the idea that they are suspected of attempting to perform some kind of discreet and secretive operation. They would be the world’s worst saboteurs with all of that equipment. It’s the people with small devices such as cell phone cameras that should be more of a concern. Might as well ban everyone with an iPhone.
— Dylan White on We were permanantly banned from the Miami-Dade Metrorail for taking photos | Photography is Not a Crime - Ugh this is so depressing, upsetting, disturbing but… GO JULES!
— Julie on London cops enforce imaginary law against brave, principled teenaged photographer – Boing Boing
