Photo<\/a> by Hugo*<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n

Please forgive me for another round of pro-Flickr<\/a> babbling, but I just ran across some really wonderful<\/em> photojournalism and had to share. The photo above is by Hugo*<\/a> and is part of an excellent series<\/a> documenting recent unrest in France. This is truly fine work, and certainly as good (or better) than a whole lot of the “professional” work out there. Time Magazine, for example, recently published their Best photos of the year 2005<\/a>, and while they have some really nice ones, their list has several that I’d enthusiastically<\/em> replace with images like Hugo*’s or some of the excellent post-Katrina documentation<\/a> of Tampen<\/a> (below).<\/p>\n

I should also point out that I don’t particularly look for “photojournalism” kind of shots on Flickr and don’t think I have anyone on my contacts list that would describe themselves primarily in those kind of terms. They’re just really good photographers who can also capture events in wonderful images. I’m sure there are lots of self-styled photojournalists on Flickr, and I’m sure many of them are also extremely good, making the two I mentioned just a tiny drop in a very large bucket. And of course Flickr isn’t the only photo sharing site\/system out there (even if I talk like it was).<\/p>\n

Wow. It’s just so<\/em> damn cool…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
