So LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, and I were there together hanging out and….well, there really isn’t going to be a time I get to say that again, so I’m going to take advantage now.
I was lucky enough to be part of the huge team that the fine folks at ESPN the Magazine put together for their latest One Day, One Game series. The point is to give fans a glimpse into everything that it takes for one single game to be put on with vignettes from every angle imaginable. It was one of my most fun shooting days ever, and I don’t think I can really go back to “normal” access after this. Of course I will, but now will at least have a hard time wondering why I can come back into the locker room and photograph a player in the ice bath.

Mike Kepka’s photos have soul. From a freelance bunny to a dancing, singing accordion player, the people he’s chosen to profile in his weekly column “The City Exposed” at the San Francisco Chronicle give an honest and loving portrayal of the city.
A major collector of William Eggleston’s work filed suit against the photographer yesterday in a U.S. District Court, accusing him of devaluing his vintage dye transfer prints by selling new, large-scale pigment prints of many of his iconic works. The sui

‘The shooting happened on the Coney Island boardwalk, in June 2011. I happened to be there with my wife, my camera, and two rolls of 120 film (24 shots total), and I made these photographs. It was the first time I had ever seen anyone shot, or stabbed, or mased. It was the first time I’d ever seen someone die.’

If there is anything that is shocking to me about the subject at this point, it’s that the visual censorship of these wars has been so absolute that many today fail to understand why such scenes would be even be relevant to see.

The biggest rivalry in the camera world today – Canon vs. Nikon – has been heating up lately as Nikon tries to claw its way into an HDSLR market that has thus far been dominated by Canon and its 5D Mark II. Tension has been mounting between fans of both,

Then again, if image quality is your #1 priority, then the X-Pro 1 may just be worth the $1699 body only cost as the IQ is SUPERB for a crop sensor APS-C camera. Probably some of the best IQ I have seen from any mirrorless to date. Due to lack of AA filter, the images that come from this sensor pop with detail and sharpness. Add to that the Fuji colors and you have a fantastic camera for image quality
No lights, no tripod and no mucking about. That’s how we continued our coverage of the growing Tibetan unrest in Western China.
One to Nothing depicts an Israel we do not see on the news. These images go beyond politics: they do not defend a side or critique the conflict. Here, Israel is seen in an unexpected light, a mythological backdrop to the age long struggle between man and the dusty, sun bleached landscape of his origin. The score to this existential battle is locked at 1– 0, with no finish line in sight. A loose, subtle, and open-ended narrative One to Nothing describes a historic tension with striking and unusual observations.
