    A new collection of images by Manhattan photographer Yasmine Chatila is causing quite a buzz throughout the city. That’s because “Stolen Moments” captures unaware New Yorkers during very private, very intimate times in their day, all played out in front of their apartment windows

    Having spent a lot of time with Mark Steinmetz’s books South East and Greater Atlanta, I was curious about the history and photographer behind the work. So I asked Mark for an interview, and much to my delight he agreed to it.

    Do the usual laws not apply to Customs and Border Protection officers? There’s one in Tampa who thinks so. When Jay Nolan, a Tampa Tribune photojournalist, arrived at the scene of a three-car…

    When Jay Nolan, a Tampa Tribune photojournalist, arrived at the scene of a three-car crash today and took photos, he was detained for 15 minutes and his phone was confiscated. David Tipton, the Customs and Border officer involved in the crash, wanted Nolan to assure him the photos wouldn’t appear in the newspaper.

    mostly I found people struggling to survive widespread poverty and corruption; cultures ill-equipped as their environments undergo tremendous upheaval; places where people worry about their next meal, not issues like global warming or overpopulation.

    I am a photojournalist and don’t dream of doing anything else. I am fortunate and often overwhelmed as I document conflict, struggle and beauty. It’s all about discovery, on many levels – oftentimes personal.

    I’m usually wary of photo essays about poverty and drugs. Eugene Richards has unleashed a torrent of imitators, and the results are often voyeuristic and exploitative–unless there’s an underlying story, photos of depraved debasement do little more than serve as a vehicle for gawking at the unmentionables, grotesques without empathy. Benjamin Lowy’s “The Afghan High” does the opposite.

    28 Camera Drawings
    by Christine Berrie
    I enjoy creating images that contain a lot of detail. In terms of subject matter, cameras are a current favourite, with a plethora of little buttons, switches, levers and dials. As cameras in the digital age become increasingly sleek, streamlined and monochrome in design, here is a visual celebration of vintage models from days gone by, created using graphite and colour pencil.

    It is a wonderful and unexpected honor to be named the 64th College Photographer of the Year.  So far, it has been a very surreal experience and I am not quite sure what to expect.  Winning CPOY was something I had never really thought much about, because it seemed beyond my grasp and an award I considered to be reserved for students at a level of shooting above my own.  There are many students whose work I look up to and admire and I will continue to do so.
