Remember Hope

Where were you on November 4th, 2008?

The site, rememberhope.com, invites people to share their memories of election night, November 2nd, 2008.

Planet Shanghai

Justin Guariglia’s book Planet Shanghai excerpted here is filled with wonderful snapshots of every day life in Shanghai. The skyscrapers next to run-down neighborhood. The food and fresh fruit being sold at the market. The shoes people wear there. Their hairstyles. Old guys hanging out in chairs they set down on the streets. And yes, people in pajamas. Lots of people in pajamas.

Take a look, then go get the book. Like the people of Shanghai, it’s full of charm.

A Day in the Life of Japan

On June 7, 1985, 100 photographers from around the world set out to cover Japan. This, however, is the first such coverage of a non-Western, non-English-speaking country. The color photographs are sumptuously reproduced and every one holds our attention. The pictures are arranged chronologically, from early morning until late at night. A map of Japan shows where each was taken. Photographers are credited next to their pictures, and biographies of participants follow the picture essay, as does a story about their experiences taking these 300 pictures, chosen from some 135,000 exposures. The range of subjects covered is enormous and shakes up our notions about Japan. Highly recommended. First published 1985 by William Collins Sons & Co. Ltd. Continue reading »

Death of Michael Jackson


Two security guards are unimpressed with the graffiti and tributes dedicated to michael jackson on an external wall of the national gallery. The one on the right referred to it as “a load of shit” that would cost the gallery hundreds of pounds to have removed.

On 25 June 2009 the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, died aged 50. This photo is from Trafalgar Square, 27 June 2009, where passers-by and tourists stood and refelcted upon the many tributes written on the lower wall of the National Gallery. Staff from the National Gallery were less impressed.
