pLOG


pLOG er en forkortelse for en "photo LOG", hvilket er en samling af foto blogs, der fortæller historier fra nutiden og fra fortiden ved hjælp af billeder - vel en slags fotodagbog.

En af de meste kendte pLOG's er fra denverpost.com, hvor der vises billeder i følgende blogs:
  • Captured - Den originale Denver Post Photo Blog. Fotojournalisme fra verdens brændpunkter
  • In War - Barske foto fra krige og konflikter på hele kloden
  • News - Foto fra aktuelle nyhedshistorier fra rundt omkring på kloden 
  • In Focus - En ugentlig foto historie, der handler om aktuelle temaer lige nu
  • The Game - Glæden ved at vinde og ærgelsen over at tabe - masser af sportsfoto
  • One Colorado Photo a Day - Siger sig selv. Et foto om dagen fra livet i Colorado
  • From the Archive - Fotosamlinger fra arkiverne hos Denver Post og andre store fotoarkiver
Jeg kan anbefale at læse/betragte billederne i Captured og In Focus. I denne uge er der en interessant fotohistorie fra hedebølgen i Rusland og de tragiske konsekvenserne de mange ildebrande har for mange mennesker. Nogle foto er dækket med et sort lag og man skal svare aktivt "ja" til at se fotoet, da der vises barske sager - ofte med blod og lemlestelse.

The subject is the table cloth captured and post processed with the iPhone app "Camera+".

Two Paths - Day 64

Days are going by - time is flying - we are getting older - the world is moving. Tic Tac Tic Tac. My professional career has come to a halt and it's time to reflect about the possibilities that opens up in such a situation. It's been a month since I stopped at Strålfors and all days (and some nights) has been used to reflect upon this situation. I've chosen to follow the obvious path - find a new job - and all my network is being activated. But another path has slowly emerged - and to no ones surprise - this path evolves around photography. I'm not talking about becoming a photographer, but to become part of the industry. Tomorrow I'll fly to Stockholm to meet some interesting people who successfully has opened a photography museum in Stockholm - Fotografiska.eu - and I'm going to here about their project and journey. The photo that I shot this afternoon in the woods nearby my home symbolise the break from Strålfors and the two new paths that I've ch...

Press photographer has to face a lot of moral issues

Every year we hear about press photographers being killed while trying to capture a decisive photo and document the truth. They also have to face a bunch of moral issues while being close to death and people in need of help. In my opinion it is vital to capture a photo that can influence decisions on a large scale. But when faced with the choice of either keep taking pictures or trying to change the course of a situation by personal interaction (and maybe risk your own life), I can only imaging the moral issues a press photographer must deal with in a few decisive seconds.
