David White posted this on May 14th, 2009 Miki at Resolve kindly pointed this out to Benjamin and I : A very honest piece by acclaimed snapper Ed Kashi, discussing how he tries to balance family life with work, the insecurities that brings and all the other doubts that creep in when he’s on assignment.
It is a very interesting topic. For me, [...]
duckrabbit posted this on May 14th, 2009 this audio slideshow by Sam Coley is a real treat.
For the rest of us its a masterclass in how to re-tell a story.
Not only that but the audio mixing is pretty much peerless.
I would have gone easier on the zooms, but that’s just a personal opinion.
A duckrabbit hats off to Sam.

David White posted this on May 13th, 2009 I was browsing the foto8 site a day ago, and found an interesting page written by Paul Lowe. On it he discusses what Steve Mayes-who has served as World Press Photo Jury Secretary for the past six years, but who has now retired-considers the golden rules to win a wpp award.
Here they are:
“Rule [...]

David White posted this on May 12th, 2009 duckrabbit have just been sent a very interesting email from Valentina Bau at Panos London telling us (and now you) about work they have been doing with digital storytelling.
Panos London promote the participation of poor and marginalised people in national and international development debates through media and communication projects. Sounds good to us.

David White posted this on May 11th, 2009 Well, you heard it here first. Or maybe you just saw it on the front page of the BBC news website. That is pretty important news, right up there on the global scale. Luckily for us there is not much else going on in the world right now, so the beeb were able to squeeze [...]
duckrabbit posted this on May 10th, 2009 it’s cause duckrabbit is in Pakistan.
David White posted this on May 9th, 2009 I was lucky enough this Easter to get into Imber, a tiny village in the middle of Salisbury Plain. Normally the village is closed to the public..what’s left of it anyway. I went out of personal curiousity really, I fancied motoring down there in my ancient and beautiful amazon…but thought I might as well take [...]
duckrabbit posted this on May 9th, 2009 totally exclusive, non refundable, day trip to the front line of the Sri Lanka war.
That’s the position Reuters photographer David Gray found himself in at the back end of April.
He’s just published a thoughtful account on the Reuters photography blog which I recommend you read:
Once we boarded the helicopter, everything went [...]

duckrabbit posted this on May 7th, 2009 now they want us to use them to knit.
It beats having another picture of a starving malnourished child staring at the lens through half lit eyes in an attempt to part me with my cash.
If duckrabbit hadn’t had lunch yesterday with one of the masterminds behind this campaign, Pete Masters from MSF, [...]
duckrabbit posted this on May 5th, 2009 can really get to you after a while.
Wherever there are problems in the world you’ll find people profiting from the pain but you’ll also find kind souls who are trying to make a difference.
Mercato is one of the biggest markets in Africa. They say you can buy anything there, even a human, dead [...]

duckrabbit posted this on May 4th, 2009 With one click you can stop time, walk through a scene capturing it in 3D, and with another click start the world revolving again.
The special model will come with a bullet proof vest.
duckrabbit posted this on May 4th, 2009 Paul Kerley is the master of throwing together audio slideshows made up entirely of archive audio and photos. This one about Margaret Thatcher is particularly successful, not least because she was such a colorful, controversial character. That said its the soundtrack that really nails this for me, its just so evocative of the eighties.
Our [...]
duckrabbit posted this on May 1st, 2009 duckrabbit found this audio slideshow by Mark Boster of the Los Angeles Times informative and compelling, if not incomplete.
California’s Vietnamese Immigrants look back on the failure of the Vietnam War (from their perspective) with pain in their hearts.
