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.

:star:READ HERE BEFORE SCROLLING DOWN!!!!!:star:
With These Riddles , I Have Decided To Give You A Moment To Think About What The Answer Is By Numbering Them So That When You Scroll To The Bottom To Find The Answer , Just Match The Number To The Riddles Number And Theres Your Answer! Have Fun Solving Them!

:star:RIDDLES:star:

1. I dig out tiny caves, and store gold and silver in them. I also build bridges of silver and make crowns of gold. They are the smallest you could imagine. Sooner or later everybody needs my help, yet many people are afraid to let me help them. Who am I?

2. How can you physically stand behind your friend as he physically stands behind you?

3. There is a clothing store in Bartlesville. The owner has devised his own method of pricing items. A vest costs $20, socks cost $25, a tie costs $15 and a blouse costs $30. Using the method, how much would a pair of underwear cost?

4. If three cats catch three mice in three minutes, how many cats would be needed to catch 100 mice in 100 minutes?

5. Four men were in a boat on the lake. The boat turns over, and all four men sink to the bottom of the lake, yet not a single man got wet! Why?

6. How many times can you subtract the number 5 from 25?

7. Dave and Brad, two popular politicians, met at a club to discuss the overthrow of their party leader. They each ordered a vodka on the rocks. Brad downed his and ordered another. He then drank his second in a gulp and decided to wait before he ordered a third. Meanwhile, Dave, who was sipping his drink, suddenly fell forward dead. Both men were setup for an assassination. Why did Dave die and Brad live?

8. If a wheel has 64 spokes, how many spaces are there between the spokes?

9. A petshop owner had a parrot with a sign on its cage that said "Parrot repeats everything it hears." A young man bought the parrot and for two weeks he spoke to it and it didn't say a word. He returned the parrot but the shopkeeper said he never lied about the parrot. How can this be?

10. Which word in the English language becomes shorter when it is lengthened?

11. What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never weeps, has a bed but never sleeps?

12. What question can you never answer?

13. What goes up when the rain comes down?

14. What is it that is deaf, dumb and blind and always tells the truth?

15. Lovely and round
I shine with pale light
grown in the darkness
A lady's delight.
What am I ?





:star:ANSWERS!:star:

1. I am a Dentist.

2. By standing back to back.

3. $45. The pricing method consists of charging $5 for each letter required to spell the item.

4. The same three cats would do. Since these three cats are averaging one mouse per minute, given 100 minutes, the cats could catch 100 mice.

5. Because they were all married and not single.

6. Only one time. After that, you would be subtracting from 20.

7. Both Dave and Brad were given drinks with poisoned ice cubes. Brad drank his drinks so quickly that the ice didn't have time to melt and release the poison.

8. 64. The space that comes after the 64th spoke,would be just before the first spoke.

9. The parrot was deaf!

10. Short.

11. A River.

12. "What's it like to be dead?"

13. An umbrella.

14. A Mirror.

15. A Pearl.
