rafal milach

I just came across this interesting interview with photographer Rafal Milach on feature shoot. Check out the link to read the interview. Something to note is that Rafal won the Grand Prix from Photography Book Now from Blurb, which is pretty impressive considering the amount of talented photographers he was up against.

I checked out his website to learn more about him, and I loved his photo series and the way he presents them. He takes you to this other place, and leaves you wanting to see more. You can preview his winning book here. I’ve also included a small gallery of some of the images from the book. Very inspiring and exciting!

i’m a photographer, not a terrorist

I’m A Photographer, Not A Terrorist aims to help photographers who get into legally ambiguous situations and are having their rights violated. They also actively participate in events and protests that advocate photographer’s rights. I’m posting the Bust Card they have on their website with a link to the PDF that you can print out and keep in your wallet. Basically it gives you a quick summary of your rights and what they police can and cannot do to you as a photographer in the US. Very interesting stuff, and even though the law is probably a bit more lax here in Canada, I would love to see a Canadian version of this!
