What they say about duckrabbit: 'One of the hazards of publishing a well-known photojournalism blog - getting multimedia like yours, where the photos are both powerful and moving, and I end up in tears at my desk.'
Alan Taylor, Boston Big Picture)
'David White's multimedia work with duckrabbit is very exciting.'
Kate Edwards (Guardian Magazine Picture Editor)
'I am a fan of duckrabbit. I am not a fan because I agree with everything Ben has to say, but because he says it without frills and then will spend the time necessary to engage the consequent discussions. Such commitment is a priceless commodity.'
Prison Photography
'I met one of them at an academic conference in the summer. He was the sanest person there, but sure enough by damn gadnabbit ruffled more than a few fluffed up peacock feathers.'
The Photography Pages
'If you haven't seen the duckrabbit blog on multimedia you should.'
Stephen Alvarez
'duckrabbit has done another jaw-dropping job with Condition Critical, a highly commendable and important project for Medecins Sans Frontiers.'

Bonjournio mon amigos,
Couple more pics for you fine folk. The first one was taken in a tiny village called Forki. I had been walking through the village to take pics of where the water had taken the land, and had found myself quickly surrounded by the local kids. After distracting the youngsters by pointing them [...]

I have decided to put up a selection of images that I shot in Bangladesh over the couple of weeks that Benjamin and I were there. I have chosen to present this selection in mono as I feel that works best for most of these images. Originally of course they were all spat out [...]

Sometimes the real art is in letting go …
“It was like being a proper journalist again …. turning up in a town you’ve never been to and not being allowed to leave until you’ve got a story.“
Last Weekend duckrabbit ran its first multimedia training course at the Trinity Arts Centre, in Bristol, England.
We threw our [...]

Ok…after looking at mediocre photography day in day out for what seems ages, I was sent an email by Marco Vernaschi.
He’s had a lot of exposure recently, and rightly so. His work is of a rare quality. He is technically totally in control, aesthetically he’s bang on and the stories he covers are epic. He [...]

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 with a little [...]

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. When [...]

Photojournalist Glenna Gordon has a nice story about surfing in Liberia running on the BBC website but it barely scratches beneath the waves.
The Liberians are literally portrayed as shadows whilst the expat NGO workers step out into the light. Drawn to Liberia by the ‘the waves’.
Why?
Maybe its the BBC edit because Glenna has a great [...]

Last month duckrabbit topped 10000 visitors for the first time.
As ever thanks for dropping by. We promise to keep telling it as we see it … even if we annoy a few people who should know better along the way.

This is a sad post. I don’t know how to write it. A friend of mine, and of many others, has gone. Huw was sad and struggling,
and now he’s hopefully at rest. I urge anyone who is in a really dark place to go and talk to someone, please. I know that can seem like [...]

Just read some interesting views from Jean-Francois Leroy, founder of Visa pour l’Image. He is talking about how agencies have helped kill photojournalism. He has some interesting points, it’s worth a read.
I was also struck by this line: “The festival will also host multimedia projects for the first time. ‘We’re not doing it because it’s [...]
