In a way I think, yes. Making the switch back to film has helped me to focus on developing my own style a lot. While film offers a lot of options, you can only have the one emulsion loaded at the one time. With digital and RAW files, you take a picture and you bring it into photoshop and it’s easy (for me at least) to get distracted by questioning if it would look better in black and white, or colour. Maybe this much contrast, or this filter or that preset or whatever it might be.

The United Nations estimates over 10 million people worldwide are not recognized by any country and are stateless. The book Nowhere People is a 10-year investigation (2005-2015) by award-winning photojournalist Greg Constantine that documents and exposes one of the most extreme and radical yet underreported human rights issues today: the arbitrary denial of citizenship by the State to individuals and entire ethnic communities as a weapon of racism, discrimination and exclusion and the impact statelessness and the ensuing deprivation of any number of rights has on the human condition.

The Rocky Mountain News photo team would go on to win a Pulitzer Prize in 2000 for Breaking News Photography. The paper closed in 2009, and the archives are now kept at the Denver Public Library. Their powerful images of Columbine were published throughout the world and, to this day, Reeves said, marked a turning point in America’s relationship with mass violence.
