Do Damon Winter’s iPhone pictures make a mockery of New York Times policy on digital manipulation? | duckrabbit
Once again we are talking about how ‘beautiful’ the photos are, or what a great device the iPhone is, but not about the war in Afghanistan (although many people do comment that the photos bring them close to the lives of the soldiers). Would we really be talking about these pictures if they hadn’t been processed by an app on the iPhone?

Unhurt by Two Mines, but Not Untouched: Damon Winter's Close Call in Afghanistan – NYTimes.com
Unhurt by Two Mines, but Not Untouched
In the middle of photographing for the “Year at War” series, Damon Winter was confronted by choices that could have made the difference between life or death.
via Lens Blog: https://archive.nytimes.com/lens.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/12/27/unhurt-by-two-mines-but-not-untouched/
It was probably the toughest situation I’ve ever been in as a photographer.
When the first mine went off, it was surreal. I think I was just completely shocked. Petty Officer Kremer was maybe about 50 feet away from me.

“I was initially reluctant to cover another election, but I quickly realized that this year it was more important than ever to be out there with a vigilant, thoughtful and critical eye. As the restrictions on the press tightened, I felt it was my duty at every possible moment to subvert them, to find photographs that were honest and telling. Every situation, no matter how controlled, contrived or mundane, was an opportunity to make something real.” — Damon Winter

I remember my mother pulling a picture out of our local Seattle Times newspaper for me, running large on the third page. A news picture tucked inside the paper, sitting on its own, was odd to see. It was as if the editors thought they had to get a great picture published even if it wasn’t ‘newsworthy’ for a local paper. I was blown away, I’m sure I said outloud that this picture would win a Pulitzer.

Through My Eye, Not Hipstamatic's: Damon Winter Discusses the Use of an App – NYTimes.com
Through My Eye, Not Hipstamatic’s
Damon Winter, a New York Times staff photographer, on the validity of an iPhone image.
via Lens Blog: http://lens.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/02/11/through-my-eye-not-hipstamatics/
I have stayed away from much of the online discussion of the use of camera phones and apps in photojournalism largely because I have not wanted to be seen as an advocate for their use and because I have wanted to avoid any appearance of endorsing any particular product or technique — which I absolutely do not. It was never my intention for these photos to be seen only in the context of the tool by which they were made.
Having said that, I will always stand behind these photographs and am confident in my decision that this was the right tool to tell this particular story.
Any discussion about the validity of these images comes down to two basic fundamentals: aesthetics and content.
