Popped into Paddington today to see the Nikon/Walkley press photo show
and Stephen Dupont's 15 years of Afghanistan reporting. Don't believe
anyone who says photojournalism is dead.

Astounding is not the right word, but the collection of Dupont's work in
one show is overwhelming. I spend about an hour progressing through the
non-progress that is Afghanistan. But in the back room, the "Axe Me
Biggie" gives a sliver of hope. Simple portraits, done with candour.
Highly recommended
I hope it will come to a museum somewhere nearby in the states.
As to the idea that photojournalism is dead ...
It's not, it's just gone freelance. Still lots of good photojournalism
around, just not many photojournalism *jobs* left.
"Video Killed The Radio Star" ... and now the internet's coming for you!
