Betweenlands is part of a project born from the trip that three independent professionals have made in the months of February and March 2011 in these countries, chasing the fall of the Arab regimes. Here they met with the amazing actors of Arab riots and asked them to express on camera their reasons for dissent.

In Memoriam: Photoblogs 2011

B:

2011 was a rough year for photoblogs with many falling by the wayside. A few were killed instantly in one post through the heart. Most passed away quietly in their sleep. Some were abandoned in a state of suspended animation, and now haunt the blogosphere as the living dead. And a few rose like Lazarus from the beyond.

Let’s take a moment now to remember those who fell in 2011.

Top Photography Websites of 2011

LPV Magazine

There are plenty of destinations to find quality work these days but I find there are very few that have a distinct point of view, and finding quality writing about photography is still a challenge.

Reframing Mexico

Screen 20shot 202011 10 02 20at 2011 09Reframing Mexico:

The drug war in Mexico captures attention, but there is a vibrant culture beyond the headlines. “Reframing Mexico” explores under-reported stories of challenges and successes in Mexico City. For just eight days in one of the world’s largest cities, students faced language, access, culture, transportation, and interpersonal challenges working extremely long hours in often very difficult conditions. The 12 stories they produced are exceptional and often beautiful. A single mother raising her children in one of Mexico’s largest garbage dumps, a middle age carpenter whose illegal immigration to the U.S. ended when the American dream proved elusive, and a young mother struggling to raise her baby in prison are just a few examples. The stories show a side of Mexico City not often portrayed in the media.
