"June 2009 was a big month. Two vastly different but related events captured my attention. The first was the annual LOOK3 Festival of the Photograph held in Charlottesville, Va., June 11-13, a powerful and sophisticated celebration of photographic images from around the world.

Really - REALLY good article... and videos...

I enjoyed the first one from the 'average american' who 'watched fox cause it was the only one with coverage'.... his was really heart felt and blunt.

I think that photography - actually - I think the graphic images that we've seen - they sort of numb us to the situation a bit... and the video...of Neda being shot... I saw it within a few hours of being posted... it was graphic...and horrifiying... and it took it from 'look at what 'those' people are doing'... to ... 'holy crap'...

Great post!
