duck has just received this: “First, allow me to introduce myself. I am the aggrieved wife of Mr Bunclark, whose sensitively shot photographs of the private members room at our local fertility clinic have been so cruelly attacked on these pages. Melvin made the decision to share these pictures after a great deal of thought [...] Further to Mervin’s great work on the post below, we have another powerful shot. He tells me this was taken from behind the sofa. I’m hoping the reason for that was to get the angle. Merv seems to have boosted the saturation a bit in post production, but maybe he’s just reflecting what he saw. [...] Nothing anonymous will get published. If you have something to say, say it. Save your personal comments to stuff about duckrabbit, but try and at least inject a bit of humor. Everyone else is an honored guest at our house. Home made soup and bread is served. Well, it’s not often a pic like this one gets posted to you. Melvin Bunclarke sent me this awesome shot. Thanks Melvin. Can you guess what it is yet?. Here’s a clue: Melvin and his wife are trying for a baby. It’s not working, they need some help. Melvin has to provide the IVF lab [...] So this morning, over breakfast, the debate in our house was whether the trip to the Dr’s would result in him sticking his finger up my arse? After doing some internet research (always dangerous) I bet he would. People, I have to tell you, I never felt so good about losing a bet. That’s what the photojournalist and founder of photo agency VII, Gary Knight, thinks about duckrabbit (so does duckrabbit’s wife).

Gary Knight is the latest to dismiss issues of race and gender in what can only be described as a very defensive post. No surprise since less than twenty percent of his agency are female. That [...] Found some interesting stuff here …more to come, I’m sure. The best thing for me was coming across Alejandro Chaskielberg’s work. He has just won David Alan Harvey’s emerging photographer grant. You can see why here. It was very slow on my mac though, unusually. Worth waiting for though. Congrats Alejandro, well deserved. [...] says something about how little we care about those who need the most care. The headline here is misleading and wrong but the article is powerful. . Thanks for the alert PETE. Below is a shot of Huw, whose funeral I was at today. Huw was proud of this picture. It was taken at a Reclaim the Streets demo in Bristol back in the day, in the middle of the M32 motorway into the city. There is going to be a big party tonight in Huw’s honour. [...]
In January 2008, I received a grant to travel to Haiti with my brother to document the work of an elderly man who started an orphanage after living through the violent government upheavals in the 1980s. [...] |
