Photojournalism: An Ethical Approach

^Helewidis:iconHelewidis: reports, January 10
If 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.

UN I: Chainbreaker now available on Bookhabit

=randomredux:iconrandomredux: reports, April 29, 2008
Crossposted from UrbanNordica.com:

In the further interest of pursuing the Long Tail, Chainbreaker has now been made available on the eBook website, Bookhabit.

Bookhabit charges a nominal fee for downloading ‘full’ books, but since we’re giving Chainbreaker away for free here anyway, we’ve waived that and the full book is available by clicking “Download first chapter (FREE)”. We’re sneaky like that. Of course, if you want to support two struggling wannabe authors by buying the whole thing for a measly $2.50, we won’t stop you. You know, just in case.

Why Bookhabit, you ask? Well, they have this competition, see. The prize is $5,000 and — more importantly — exposure. There is a little over one week of voting left and it sure would be nice to get to Round Two. Something we need your help on. All you have to do is pop over to the site and download and/or rate Chainbreaker for us. We get 5 points per download and one point per star per rating. Five minutes of your day, max, I swear.

Don’t make me get Jesse out here with the emotional blackmail!


~A.S. Vaughn
