First we'll take Berlin

As many of you will already know, I'm leaving for Germany at the end of the week, and won't be back in Tokyo until the second week of June. First I'm going to Frankfurt to catch up with Dr J, then its down to Tübingen for the Tips from the Top Floor workshop. From there, I'm heading north to Berlin to relive my misspent youth.

Heroes of Photography

In this month's American Photo there's an article on the work of 10 great photographers. Heroes of Photography (an appropriate moniker, for the most part) highlights work by photographers who are "...committed to causes large and small, public and personal, and hoping to make a difference."

If you are anything like me, you are probably pretty skeptical when it comes to lists of this sort. 'Top 10' articles are usually just an excuse for lazy journalism (picture a bunch of guys sitting around a meeting room drinking coffee and either pulling names out of a hat or nominating friends of theirs). Nevertheless, I'm sure you'll agree after checking out the photogallery that the 10 photographers here are seriously talented.

A quick word of warning: many of the images in this slideshow are graphic.
