De december-editie van de Digital Journalist is voor een groot deel gewijd aan portretfotograaf Arnold Newman.
Ook een leuke column over het fotoboek als kerstgeschenk: There is no gift like a book of photos. (1) You don't have to read. (2) If you are a photographer, you can always use a stack of these big books to flatten prints.
Verder waarschuwt hoofdredacteur Dirck Halstead tegen het al te gemakkelijk wissen van (digitale) beelden die op het eerste oog niet van belang zijn:
If I had, like the wire photographers erased the photograph of Monica Lewinsky hugging Bill Clinton from my hard drive, as the other photographers who were there that night did, there would be no visual evidence in existence of that moment, which helped to decide the legacy of a President. We still don't know the long-term implications of what that moment captured in time will have in years to come.
As photojournalists we have not only the privilege of witnessing history, but we also have the responsibility of saving it.
