Pablo Chignard Robert Landsberg meurt en protégeant ses photos d’une éruption volcanique Certaines histoires sont bien tristes à citer tout en méritant néanmoins le respect. Celle de Robert Landsberg en est une. Le photographe est en effet décédé des suites de l’éruption du Mont St Hélène en 1980, et son dernier réflexe fût de protéger son matériel de prise de vue et les photos déjà faites alors qu’il comprend qu’il ne va pas pouvoir survivre à l’éruption. Au moment où l’éruption du Mont St Hélène se produit, le 18 Mai 1980, le photographe Robert Landsberg est en train de faire des photos pour documenter la vie du volcan et son évolution dans le temps. Il est à quelques kilomètres du volcan mais l’éruption, soudaine et violente, touche très rapidement toute la région. Le photographe se sait alors condamné, n’ayant aucune possibilité matérielle de s’éloigner au plus vite. Face à cette situation on ne peut plus exceptionnelle, le réflexe de Robert Landsberg l’est tout autant. Le corps du photographe est retrouvé 17 jours plus tard. Source : Petapixel

Charles Mostoller Photography My Concrete Cowboys project was featured in the June issues of both PDN and PDN's Emerging Photographer, getting two pages in both and a doubletruck in Emerging. Read the interview with me in PDN here. I spent a few hours this weekend with a group of teenagers in West Philly who are learning to ride and keep horses, as well as working by hanging out in parks offering pony rides for $5. I met them by chance while on another assignment. This was my first time out with them, but I plan on spending more time following them around, both as they ride, at the stables, and in their homes. I hope anyone reading this catches my sarcasm....

Alexandra Sophie Find me all around the web: Website - deviantArt - Facebook - Twitter Alexandra Sophie, 20 year old is a french self-taught, who loves to make magic with a camera, to capture love, fairies, childhood dreams and fragility. I like ice cream, witches and aliens. I love to wear dresses and run in the fields. I have been sitting on that bench, looking at the people running, trying not to miss their bus, I've been standing against that wall and watching teenagers going out from school and laughing at each other. A harmonic world between us and nature, where everyone care about each other and feel free to love.
In West Baltimore, a community copes, with rage and hope, in the aftermath of Freddie Gray’s death Neisha shows off her neck tattoos, standing outside Gilmor Homes, one of Baltimore’s many public housing projects. The WB stands for West Baltimore, the neighborhood where Neisha grew up and where Freddie Gray died while in police custody, May 2, 2015. (Wil Sands/Fractures Collective) A vigil marking three months since Freddie died in police custody takes place on Mount Street. This is the place where police stopped the paddy wagon after arresting Freddie, July 13, 2015. With the toll of civilian deaths at the hands of police officers in the U.S. over 650 this year so far, the national conversation over race relations continues to intensify. Eager to change the narrative of what he considered “insincere” press coverage of the deaths of Michael Brown in Ferguson and and Freddie Gray in Baltimore, photographer William Sands spent several months in the Gilmor Homes housing complex in Baltimore where Gray once lived.
