All Dadaab needs now is a photographer like James Mollison.

Here's the blurb I've just found in my inbox (not linking to this crap) about James Mollison's visit to the Dadaab refugee camp: He set up simple backdrops that remove the subject from the chaos......

Funny film but I’d go a bit further.

A lot of Vincent's DLSR video work is pretty (vacant) and only of interest to the seemingly millions of DLSR geeks. Fair play to him though. There's a lot of money (for the......

"There is a con, there is an unrealistic expectation being peddled that you give your £50 and suddenly those people are going to have food to eat. Well, no. We need that £50, yes;......

Wow. Utterly compelling storytelling..

I didn't have time to watch these three amazing videos this morning. But I did. Something tells me you will too. http://youtu.be/Dmop7EAY1Zg http://youtu.be/PtzN-Ltob2w http://youtu.be/EI93y2oJ4ck...

You can’t begin to imagine just how much money gets pissed away in Ethiopia.

Been a strange week for news. The media, it seems, was gripped by the story of a bunch of journalists being trapped in a luxury hotel in Tripoli. I heard an incredibly self-indulgent interview......

Why Martin Nachtwey recommends the new CASHCOW photography awards.

Get this advert printed in the broadsheets.

Watch this 45 second ad. In many ways it's more shocking then the picture in the poster. http://youtu.be/SW3Y56uEADU ...

“I tried to make myself unimportant in the presence of such people …”.

It's 23.00 hrs GMT on Sunday 21st of August. Right now, as I am typing this, Tripoli is being stormed by the Libyan rebels. It's a historic moment by any standards. Twitter is buzzing......

Ask a question of a photographer, get an answer with a picture ….

This is pretty damn cool and very French. 'Every month we are asking ten questions to the best international photographers – and they answer with pictures! The questions are e.g. “What is the first......

What a difference 6 months can make, or how a couple of photos and a bit of text on a blog can turn a stereotype on its head.
