Photojournalism from the soul
One day, a long, long time ago I got tired of listening to photojournalists talking about their equipment. It always seemed to me that these were the people who took photographs that were OK, but seem to lack the emotional content of great photos. I've found through my experience with teaching others, that these photographers never found that spot, deep down in their chest, where we feel the most intense feelings in our lives.

Veterans History Project
Motivated by the urgent need to collect the stories and experiences of war veterans while they are still among us, the U.S. Congress created the Veterans History Project in October 2000. The legislation calls upon the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress to collect and preserve audio- and video-taped oral histories, along with documents such as letters, diaries, maps, photographs, and home movies, of America's war veterans and those who served in support of them during World War I, World War II, and the Korean, Vietnam, and Persian Gulf wars. This Web site tells you about the project and invites your participation in this national effort.

The WHNPA was founded on June 13, 1921 by the 17 Photographers who regularly covered the Office of President Warren G. Harding. Until its founding, photojournalists were regarded as second class citizens around the Executive Office and didn't even have access to the press room. Within a year and a half, WHNPA members earned equal status with reporters.

ZoneZero
ZoneZero © is dedicated to photography. Its name intends to be a metaphor for the journey from analog to digital image making. One of the references comes from "The Zone System" a fine example of the analog heritage in photography made so famous by Ansel Adams. From the analog dark room we are now moving to the digital one; where everything analog is transformed into digits represented through the infinite combinations of either zeros or ones.
