Jean-François Rauzier is a French photographer who has developed the concept of ‘hyperphotos’ – ‘stitching’ together hundreds of enormous high-resolution images. Citadelle 2, which measures 180cm x 300cm, was created from a total of 1,500 images, endless
Roger Ballen’s style may bring to mind painters like Jean Dubuffet and Francis Bacon rather than the work of other photographers. His haunting, cramped images, as Kristen Joy Watts reports, thwart any expectations of a clear narrative.

The first image in Shelley Calton’s Hard Knocks, is a wonderful set-up for the brief, wild ride into the kinetic world of women’s roller derby that is to come. Titled “Agent Belligerent,” the opening portrait is of a woman who looks set for combat – and she is.

Alec Soth shot to notoriety before I dipped my toes in photography appreciation. He also terminated his treasured blog before I could jump aboard. I missed the early boat on Soth’s work and h…

Maybe it’s old age but lately I’ve started to use speedlights for the celebrity portraits that I ordinarily would be hauling — or an assistant on occasion — my “large lights”.
Every 24.5 days, the phones will switch between being able to focus and not being able to focus. An Android developer confirmed the bug and suggests a patch will be available before Dec. 11, the next date when all of the cameraphones will stop focusing again
“Don’t expect,” wrote photographer W Eugene Smith, “a point-by-point hand-led tour. This is an experience as an intensely curious visitor (perhaps a new resident) mig
President Obama, whose motorcade has been as long as 71 vehicles, is always at least 30 cars ahead of the four-person photo pool trailing him as he tours Asia. I really wanted a whimsical picture of the president as he walked past the “No Smoking” sign in the Forbidden City, but his Chinese police escorts blocked the shot as his entourage swept by.
After more than forty years with the Associated Press, veteran photographer Harry Cabluck, 71, was one of the 80-90 staffers laid off by the organization on Tuesday. He always said he had no plans to retire.
Other AP veterans let go include photography staff members Donna McWilliams in Dallas; Al Grillo in Anchorage, AK; Mary Ann Chastain in Columbis, SC; and Winslow Townson and Lisa Poole in Boston, MA.
Our mission is to educate photojournalists, not only in current technologies, but in understanding cultural differences and similarities and to contribute to truth, ethics, and social justice.
Our goal is to reflect honesty, sensitivity, and intelligence in photojournalism, and to use these as tools to inspire, educate, and promote change in the world around us.
Through the workshops, photojournalists will experience international location coverage working with Nonprofits and NGOs and develop an understanding of their social responsibility to provide voice to all members of society while stressing truth and ethics in an effort to bring about social change.
