The just released Canon S90 presses all of the right buttons, (so to speak). It is currently the world’s smallest and lightest shirt-pocket-sized (SPS) camera that shoots raw. It has an almost 4X zoom (28–105mm equivalent) and has a remarkable f/2 as its widest aperture at the wide end of its range. There is, of course, optical image stabilization, a full 3″ LCD screen, as well as a built-in pop-up flash. As I first wrote, all the right buttons have been pressed, and this is more than a pun, as we’ll soon see. anything
Jim Goldberg is best known for his book, Raised By Wolves, published in 1995, an impressionistic and often graphic document of the 10 years he spent photographing the young homeless of San Francisco. Now comes Open See, the book and accompanying exhibition, both part of a still-ongoing project about what Goldberg calls the “new Europeans” – illegal immigrants, refugees, displaced people and asylum seekers from Africa, the Middle East and eastern Europe.

I have always been under the impression that America has not given its female photographers the credit they deserve(d), and that it is maybe a bit too generous with its male ones.
“The Animals,” a book I was moved to reexamine after the events of Sept. 11, 2001, is the deliberately literal-sounding title of photographer Garry Winogrand’s first book of photographs, which was published in 1969, some 20 years after the artist embarked on his life’s work that of becoming the Theodore Dreiser of the lens. Winogrand was New York’s, not Chicago’s, most brilliant modern reporter, a journalist not unaware of the issues implicit in what he chose to photograph: the women and blacks who defined the city’s “outsiderness.”

These days, as a photographer, one strives constantly to not become a data center administrator. What with endless upgrades, updates, revisions, patches, security alerts, subscription management, feed management and the like, it’s a wonder that we have any time left to actually take and create photographs. Consequently, subjects such as backing up one’s data usually fall to the bottom of the list in terms of priorities. Then, ensuring the integrity of the data is even farther down the list of things to do. As usual, one day we get the dreaded “can’t read Drive X”, only to throw up our hands in despair.
Rock ’n’ roll and photography need each other — or, at least, rock musicians need photographers. You can’t be a star if you don’t have an image. But what makes a good rock photograph is something to ponder, and “Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present” at the Brooklyn Museum offers an excellent opportunity to do so.

Well, i am 36 years old and live in Berlin. I started to take pictures quite late when I was 18. Photography quickly became a kind of addiction for me and I spent most of the time either shooting or working in the darkroom. In the beginning the darkroom was a kind of magical place for me – the moment you start to see the first contours of a picture on what was a piece of white paper seconds before – fantastic. In todays digital world there’s nothing comparable to this.

Smooth, silky, smoky and gentle; as formal as you might expect from the painter he once wanted to be, Roy DeCarava’s photographs speak in a language far softer than we’re accustomed to now. They are no less powerful for their subtlety. They are meant to repay close study and they do.
Kirsten Wilmink recently graduated from the ArtEZ AKI Academy of Visual Arts in Photographic Design and is continuing her studies at the Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam. As a cross media designer Wilmink’s main focus is staged photography. Her graduation project, The Truth About Germans, depicts stereotypes and the existing prejudices about German people in which she used her own family members as models.
Getting permission to shoot inside corporate headquarters did indeed take some convincing. In 1994, with the help of contacts from the Times, Tunbjörk got permission to begin shooting. Little did he know his office odyssey would span five years and three continents, leading him from Sweden to America to Japan , with stops at a car company in Tokyo, a telecommunications firm in Stockholm , a bank in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
