The Remarkable Photos Of Lynsey Addario
Originally posted by Linked Story:

Even after winning the 2009 Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting and being named a MacArthur Fellow, photojournalist Lynsey Addario still gets nervous when she takes on a new assignment.

"Every story I do, I panic before I go. I wonder if I will be able to make strong pictures, if I will be able to capture the story, if I will be able to make the shot that will, at least, compel people to continue looking," Addario told NPR's Mary Louise Kelly in an interview for All Things Considered.

Addario has just released a new book, Of Love & War. It features over 200 of her photographs, focusing on women in conflict zones from her coverage of wars and humanitarian crises over the past two decades.

She told Kelly that she has learned a lot since she first started photographing.

Polar Photographer Shares His View Of A Ferocious But Fragile Ecosystem
Originally posted by Program Summary:

Conservation photographer Paul Nicklen has spent more than two decades documenting the ice and wildlife in some of the most inhospitable places on Earth — the Arctic and the Antarctic.

It's a risky business: Nicklen often finds himself immersed in frigid waters, just a camera's length away from deadly predators. Once, in Antarctica, he came face-to-face with a 1,000-pound leopard seal ...

WELCOME TO RAQQA- My new photo story is finally online. I photographed and wrote this journal while recently embedded with forces fighting to surround the 'ISIS capital' in Syria. You can read it now on my blog: https://joeyl.com/blog/all/post/welcome-to-raqqa

Photographer Builds a "Photo Ark" for 6500 Animal Species (and counting)

Originally posted by Program Summary:

National Geographic contributing photographer Joel Sartore is 11 years into a 25-year endeavor to document every captive animal species in the world using studio lighting and black-and-white backgrounds. So far, he's photographed 6,500 different species, which leaves approximately 6,000 to go.

Sartore tells Fresh Air's Terry Gross that presenting the animals in the studio, rather than in nature, gives them equal importance in the eye of the viewer. "A mouse is every bit as glorious as an elephant, and a tiger beetle is every bit as big and important as a tiger," he says. "It's a great equalizer."

Sartore chronicles his project in the new photography book, The Photo Ark ...

Starry nights and empty streets in Idlib: PHOTOS
Originally posted by Program transcript:


At night, Idlib, Syria, has a wondrous glow. In fact, the atmosphere is so stark that the stars appear especially bright. It looks sleepy, peaceful.

But the rebel-held city, where the streets are eerily quiet once darkness falls, may soon be in harm’s way — as the possible next target of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s military offensive.

Idlib was bustling with people before the Syrian war began in 2011, but now, few residents venture outside their homes at night.


Thanks. I'm speechless. We all should see this.

Agreed.

Views From Aloft: The Art of Space Photography

Great interview at Science Friday ...

Originally posted by Link Abstract:


Astronaut Don Pettit took the millionth photo from the International Space Station. He also took hundreds of thousands of other photos. Many of them were routine photos taken during safety checks and engineering troubleshooting. But he shot a trove of others while off-duty, from the seven-windowed Cupola of the Space Station, capturing scenes both celestial and terrestrial.

Pettit has gathered some of his favorites in a new book, Spaceborne. He joins Ira to talk about the challenges of pursuing photography in space, what compels him to click the shutter, and why art has a place in an astronaut’s mission.

Artist Uses Tintypes to Update Images of Klamath Falls Tribes
Originally posted by Program Summary:

While Ed Drew was deployed in Afghanistan, he created tintype photographs of his comrades — the first known use of the tintype process in a combat zone since the Civil War. Drew’s recent series, “Native Portraits,” depicts members of the Klamath, Modoc and Pit River Paiute tribes of Northern California and Southern Oregon. The series is currently on exhibit at the California Historical Society in San Francisco. We speak with Ed Drew and curator Erin Garcia about the exhibit and media representations of Native people.


Sample images posted now, audio will be available for download tomorrow.
