‘68: The News, The Stories, The Photographs

Nice exhibition at the national theatre displaying how the IHT covered the events of 1968. I love the front pages all over the wall and in the book 12o Years of Front Page News.

Most noticeable is the dominance of Associated Press and United Press International pictures on all the front pages. All agency credited, but no photographer bylines back then. In fact UPI only used to add the photographer initials to the picture caption.

An Urban History of Photography

Street and Studio at Tate Modern is one of the best photography exhibitions since Tate Britain's How We Are. More here..

Cliche

A view of London looking West from Canary Wharf down the River Thames. The sunset picture is a cliche but I could not resist making this picture last night from a vantage point rarely enjoyed by Londoners.

The Netherlands

I'm off to Rotterdam for a few days to stay with good friends and then on to Amsterdam for the World Press Photo award days. Very much looking forward to the Martin Parr lecture which will be streamed live. I attended his Photovoice lecture in London last year. Very entertaining.
