Well, this spot here is one of the fruits of that labor. As you...

NYC Photographer Jamie Livingston shot a Polaroid photo everyday for 6,000 days, or, roughly, 18 years. The first shot was of his girlfriend at the time on March 13, 1979. His last photo was on his deathbed, dying of cancer on October 25, 1997. And so I ask you, how strong is YOUR commitment to a creative life? Enough said. Here's the site where most of the images are scanned in... [Thanks Lee.(via this...)]

Don't view this as endorsement of kids smoking, tobacco or any of that shiznit. But these photos will make you look twice, guarenteed. Regardless of if it's social, political or commercial, or otherwise, it's very effective art. This is smart, powerful, horrible. This photo series "The Beauty of an Ugly Addiction" is Photographer Frieke Janssens’ response to nicotine addiction and new smoking laws. She asks, "does this ban treat adults like children who can’t willfully...

He salvaged the camera, poked around a little bit (determining that the camera had been dropped into the water in August 2010), recovered the data off the card and, using Google+, found the owner. Markus' original post and updates here. The social web...

While I was in Asia last week, I got a update note from my talented, activist photographer friend, Chris Jordan, with a link to the below, powerful, heartwrenching clip... He's making progress on his feature documentary at midway. NOTE: this content is emotive and graphic. It shows the last moments--literally the last breaths--of a dying albatross. If this might bother you, do not watch it. If, on the other hand, you have the ability to...

"I can’t get over the feeling that pictures taken with a camera in a phone that everyone owns [iphone] have no value." - Excerpt from APhotoEditor, Drowning in Photography Sorry APE, forgive me for being prescriptive, but you'd better get over that feeling.
