Photojournalism: An Ethical Approach
^Helewidis
reports, January 10
reports, January 10If you click the link (title) you'll be directed to an online edition of a book originally published by Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Publishers, Hillsdale, New Jersey, 1991: Photojournalism An Ethical Approach by Paul Martin Lester.
I consider it food for thought and reflection about photojournalism and ethics and thus would like to share it with you.
Now follows an excerpt to lure you into reading the full version:
A photojournalist is a mixture of a cool, detached professional and a sensitive, involved citizen. The taking of pictures is much more than F-stops and shutter speeds. The printing of pictures is much more than chemical temperatures and contrast grades. The publishing of pictures is much more than cropping and size decisions. A photojournalist must always be aware that the technical aspects of the photographic process are not the primary concerns.
A mother crying over the death of her daughter is not simply an image to be focused, a print to be made, and a picture to be published. The mother's grief is a lesson in humanity.
If the photojournalist produces a picture without a thought for her tragedy, the lesson is lost. But if the photographer cares for her loss, is made more humane, and causes the readers to share in her grief, photojournalism has reached its highest potential.
Despite its frustrations and low moments, the lesson of humanity is why photojournalism is an extremely rewarding profession. For that reason, photojournalism is worthy of the best thought and actions possible by its participants.
--from chapter eight: "Juggling journalism and Humanism"

Calling All Twilighters!
~Mizra
reports, April 25, 2008
reports, April 25, 2008Twilight Showcase
Calling all Twilighters! You want to see some Twilight art? I sure do! I've scoured the DA archives for some of the best Twilight fanart around. Here's the cream of the crop:
For those who don't know (you must be living under a rock) Twilight is a young-adult novel by Stephenie Meyer. It features a girl named Bella Swan who moves to a rainy town in Washington State to live with her father. Once there, she meets a handsome classmate named Edward Cullen. Him and his whole family astounds her with their beauty and grace. She begins to fall in love with him and soon realizes a dark truth... Edward and his family are vampires!
And don't let the whole vampire thing (or YA rating) fool you! This isn't just your average teen-angst story with mythical creatures: it's redefines how vampires are portrayed, how true love is seen, how soulmates are born.
Anyway, here are a few highlights of the series, which spans all three books, in which some cover the movie and/or the forth-coming book, Breaking Dawn:
=vintage-aerith - "Edward Cullen II"
*Noiry - "your lullaby ... twilight"
~PinkThreadComplex - "Two Fates- Twilight series"
*kara-lija - "A Family Curse"
=RoseOnyxis - "Twilight's Forbidden Fruit"
~Frotu - "In the Sunlight"
*Loleia - "Twilight: Mind Over Matter"
~tall-tale - "Twilight Poster"
*SwissDutchess - "A Cullen Thanksgiving"
~lenity - "Bella x Jacob"
~madcroonage - "Jacob and Bella"
~sineous - "jacob black"
~lykwyd - "Jacob"
~alizarin - "Jacob and Bella - Sunny days"
~Melleh17 - "Jake and Bella - Eclipse"
~momo-mia - "Twilight"

It wouldn't matter how it's repackaged, there's nothing "good" about vampires. It's the same as the Wiccans who claim to only practice "good" magic.
Then why are you claiming there is nothing good about vampires?
Vampires are fictional creatures. This is a FICTIONAL book.
Therefore, it is possible to make vampires good.
