Duckrabbit proudly presents ‘The Hinterlands’ residential photofilm storytelling (multimedia) Workshop 20th-25th May 2011.

I could give you the back story. But I won't. It's interesting, but not nearly as exciting as the workshop. This is what you need to know (taken from The Hinterlands Website:) Take the beautiful Devon......

“Paparazzi photography soon illegal in Switzerland”.

Sounds interesting, thought I. "Sweden’s Justice Minister Beatrice Ask said Monday that "undercover photography" without peoples permissions in private areas -- such as in their homes, dressing cabins or gym changing rooms -- should......

Aha! All becomes clear. Sort of..

Odd. But quite magic. Steampunk insects. There's even a book. Great stuff. ...

Thanks Penny.

Penelope Anne Tweedie, photojournalist, born 30 April 1940; died 14 January 2011 I never got to meet Penny. I wish I had. She sounds beautiful. I remember being wowed by her Australian images as a......

#FF Folk Friday.

Robert Frank was handy with a camera. Jackson was handy with a guitar. This is beautiful, but the video could with some work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VzyDT4MQGA...

R.I.P the darkroom..

Lovely little piece here by Richard Nicholson about the demise of London's darkrooms. I suppose it won't resonate so much unless you have spent time shuffling prints in their trays. Darkrooms are magical. No two ways......

Bonza bonanza.

"According to Wikipedia, Lik has sold over $150 million in limited edition prints to date." And he's just flogged another one for a cool 1 million $. ...

Open Eye: Lebanon’s missing (Radio documentary and photofilm on the BBC).

(PLEASE SHARE THIS IMPORTANT STORY) If you didn't get to listen to the fascinating and harrowing piece on the BBC World Service this morning about the photographer Dalia Khamissy's attempts to document what happened to......

Like Vivian Maier? Kickstarter needs you….

Already 3 times over what was asked for, with 54 days to go. Looks very interesting. Not very often that's going to happen to any photographer methinks, let alone one unheard of until......

If you’re afraid and don’t know where to start, don’t worry duckrabbit knows exactly how you feel.

Been there and will be there again. What you need is an adventure. One is brewing in the heart of Devon. The Hinterlands is coming soon. ...

Just because you couldn’t be bothered to get to the end of the post.

doesn't mean you're allowed to not watch the photofilm, and all the way to the very end. You, yes you. I rewrote my post because I know you have better things to do: 'I......

Prix Pictet. How to run an elitist competition properly.

This is just a small glimpse of the nominators of the Prix Pictet. If you're decent, and you don't get nominated by one of them, then you must either run an irreverent blog, be......

Was it ever different?.

What really dismays me — the Afghan war crying out for context as far as big media is concerned — is how three major organizations could send out three of the best photographers in......

The film that would win the World Press Multimedia Award (if there was a public vote).

Obviously the top people at The World Press know a thing or two about how to run a competition. For their latest award, they've decided that the FIFA World Cup football selection model......

WPP launches multimedia contest..

But you can't enter. You must be chosen, magically. At least Ed Kashi is the chair, I feel better now. I have no idea whatsoever though how any pieces are nominated, entered, chosen, judged......

How to gain a stop and get shot..

"MSHI predicts that when using the shoulder stock a full stop can be gained in low light shooting" Well, that's alright then. Personally, I'd gain a stop another way, and keep the relevant number......

Exploding photos..

Well, nearly. They self destruct at least. I can see uses way beyond clearing your myspace cache. ...

Put this in your diary, under pain of death..

Ok, that was a bit extreme. Maybe I should have said, put this in your diary, if you like. The thing is, you should, because it's Zed Nelson's first documentary film.. We all know......

An, er, job. With money, and everything..

Blimey. Jobs for photographers. Have I slipped back in time? (checks watch, no, it's still 4pm).... You will have to work like a mule however, and for not much straw. Plus you'll need to......
