A photographer in Haiti is running a workshop and charges attendees $4000. He claims the workshop teaches photographers how to work and shoot in a disaster zone.
The photographer received more than 60 hate mail type responses in his blog entry, which he quickly deleted. Good thing Google chaches everything.
Wired Magazine wrote an article about this, and also, his rebuttal why he thinks his critics are wrong.
Personally, I think he draws the line where humanity ends and capitalism begins. It’s not wrong to document things as they happen if that’s what you do for a living, but somehow, the whole thing leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

P NutNews, Photography, Quicklinks photojournalism
I find it funny how 2 art students would win a photojournalism contest and then reveal that all the pictures that they submitted were staged. The British Journal of Photography writes about it here.
What I find interesting here is that the winners studied the winning pieces and photojournalism’s cliches. I know that this would probably spark a lot of talks and hopefully, progress.

Invesp lists down Top Photography Blogs. If you’re done reading all the articles in your RSS reader, then I would suggest that you visit the list and add some more sites like I did.
Apparently, Invep sampled 20,000 sites and based their calculations based on RSS memberships, Yahoo incoming links, Google PageRanks, etc. One thing that you might want to take note of, is that a lot of these sites are actually technical/gear/tutorial sites. Although there is nothing wrong with that, but there are some really nice photography sites that are not included in the list — most of which just simply feature their portfolios.

Dean Collins is a renowned photographer. He taught advanced lighting classes during the 80s and apparently, he’s one guy who knows how to use the different gear they had back then and he understood how light works. His lectures are pretty much scattered in Youtube and they are still very much applicable in this day and age. Of all the videos, what got my attention is his take on digital photos, manipulation, and stock photos. This was shot in 1998 and most, if not all, are pretty accurate.

Here’s a cool way to trigger Canon EOS Dslrs — use your iPhone. But seriously, I don’t think it’s very much worth it but it looks cool though.

I’ve been very busy lately working on a couple of sites and might have a big shoot sometime soon. Here are some inspiring photographers to check out.
- Check out fine art photographer Jo Whaley’s portfolio. Amazing stuff.
- Fine art photographer Alan Babbit did something a lot of other guys wouldn’t have been able to do their entire life — take great photographs inspite of his Parkinson’s disease.
- Kenneth Parker has a very impressive gallery. Check out his works. It’s a dream job.

Here’s a cool behind the scenes fashion shoot that I really find very informative. It made some really good use of studio space, flags, gels, backdrops and what not. You can check out the photo sets over at Flickr.

Check out this cool set of photos during the Earth Hour 2009. I guess this just proves we’re all a part of something and a little deed can amount to something big when done together.

Just found this thing somewhere in the midst of the worldwide web and think it’s pretty cool. Maybe they can make different drives for different lenses. This thing was sold for $96 over at ebay.
