After sharing photos from her stepdaughter's sixteenth birthday, Paula found herself at the center of a wave of harsh criticism from strangers who believed they knew everything about her family from a single Instagram post. In this episode, she uses that experience to explore the psychology of judgment, projection, entitlement, and the assumptions people make based on appearances. She also explains the philosophy behind raising children with an abundance mindset rather than a scarcity mindset, and why she refuses to apologize for creating opportunities for the people she loves. If you've ever been judged unfairly—or caught yourself judging someone else—this episode offers a perspective that may change the way you see both yourself and others.

Nina Alvarez joins Dr. Sandie Morgan to unpack a question raised after The New York Times published images from Figueroa Street: was legal consent enough to prevent harm? Together they explore the ethical duty of care journalists owe survivors, the lasting life of images, and why covering trafficking responsibly takes more than good intentions.Chapters(00:00) - Introduction: welcoming journalist Nina Alvarez (03:46) - What "ethical duty of care" means for journalists (06:00) - Consent, trauma, and the limits of a release form (16:42) - Why "rescue" is the wrong word for trafficking recovery (22:14) - What editors and organizations should ask before publishing (28:44) - Power, images, and protecting sources long after publication (38:03) - Media narratives, public misunderstanding, and what needs to change (43:14) - Closing thoughts and how to get involved About Nina AlvarezNina Alvarez is a journalist, documentarian, video photographer, and the CBS Assistant Professor of International Journalism at Columbia Journalism School. She has spent more than twenty-five years reporting breaking news, feature stories, radio reports, broadcast segments, and long-form documentaries around the world.Alvarez began her career at ABC News, working on the documentary series Turning Point before covering the southeast U.S. and Latin America from ABC's Miami Bureau and helping establish the network's Mexico City Bureau in 1997. Her work has aired on World News Tonight with Peter Jennings, Good Morning America, Nightline, and 20/20, earning three national Emmy Awards.Since 2001, she has reported and produced for Univision, NBC, CNN, NPR, MTV News, and Al Jazeera, with work spanning the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean. She produced, directed, and photographed Very Young Girls, a Showtime documentary following New York City girls who had been sexually exploited and trafficked domestically, and was a producer on the Oscar-nominated Which Way Home.Key Points• Nina Alvarez explains that the ethical duty of care means weighing the lasting impact a story will have on the person in it, since a published story is permanent and the subject may not fully grasp what that means when they agree to participate.• Consent is not the same as a signed release form; Alvarez describes consent as an ongoing process that journalists have to revisit before, during, and after a story is published.• Alvarez points out that turning 18 makes someone legally able to consent, but it doesn't erase the effects of years of trauma, so journalists still have to weigh whether a survivor's "yes" is solid.• Morgan and Alvarez agree that "rescue" is the wrong frame for trafficking recovery, since most survivors leave and return to their situations multiple times before they're fully out.• Alvarez explains that rescue-centered narratives draw more funding and legislative attention toward policing, while recovery-centered approaches that give survivors housing and health resources get less support.• Alvarez says editors should be asking why minors' first names and identifying details were included in a story at all, and whether a survivor understood that their words to police would end up published nationally.• Alvarez encourages organizations to set ground rules with journalists, including reviewing the story and images in advance, and warns that survivors who depend on an organization for access may feel pressure to say yes.• Alvarez reflects that Very Young Girls, made in 2007, didn't anticipate how permanently images would circulate online, and the women in that documentary now say they can never fully escape those images.Resources• Figueroa Street and the Ethical Duty of Care (Columbia Journalism Review)• Very Young Girls (documentary)• GEMS (Girls Educational and Mentoring Services)• Humanitarian Initiative Bridges• Columbia Journalism School

Charles and Jon compare notes from their recent trips to China, and talk the joys of travel there, especially the country's superb mammalwatching opportunities. Charles and his family spent 10 days in China's Qinghai Province in May, while Jon was in China for a month from mid-April, including almost two weeks in Yunnan Province and a few days in Qinghai.We discuss the Gouli Valley, and the extraordinary carnivore watching there, due in large part to a guide with superhuman vision. Charles has a close encounter with some Tibetan caterpillar connoisseurs and Jon discovers that seeing any species might be possible with the help of the right friends in China, especially when one is the 'mammal lord'.Notes: Jon's 2026 reports from China - Yunnan, Qinghai, Tangjiahe, Guangxi and Zhejiang - are already available on mammalwatching's China page. If you are interested in details of the tour he will lead across Qinghai next year, including to the original Valley of the Cats, please email.The study of Fishers predating Lynxes that Charles discussed at the start is here.If you would like to submit you own notes from the field then please get in touch with Jon at info@mammalwatching.comYou can support mammalwatching and buy us a coffee here https://buymeacoffee.com/mammalwatchingFinally did you know you can sign up to receive a weekly mammalwatching newsletter here? https://www.mammalwatching.com/subscribe-to-updates/Cover art: Pallas's Cat in the Gouli Valley, February 2026.

Before we dive into this week’s episode (number 588, btw), just a quick reminder: two spots are still available in the Photo Book Club—Click on the link under the workshop menu for more details. This week, the inspiration for this episode came from the book we are reading for the book club — Robert Adams’s Why People Photograph. But before we dig into our topic. We lost two great photographers this past week. Both Duane Michals and David Hockney passed away. Duane pushed photography into the realms of narrative, imagination, and personal expression, and reminded us that photographs could ask questions rather than provide answers. David said he took pictures (30,000) from time to time, and he continually encouraged us to reconsider how we see and work with ideas as complex and dynamic rather than as frozen moments. While they will be missed, we have such a great archive of their work. If you haven’t looked at their work, it’s worth your time. Our main topic for the week is about those exact moments of the shutter clicking. For many, photography is something we do almost automatically. Cameras are always within reach, and images are made billions of times a day. Yet beneath every photograph lies a simple question: Why did we choose to photograph that particular moment? In this episode, I explore some of the ideas behind the why of our photographs. For some of us, photography begins with attention. Before there is a photograph, there is an act of noticing. Something in the world captures our interest, interrupts our routine, and asks us to pause. The camera becomes a way to acknowledge that moment. We might photograph to remember, but photographs aren’t records of the past. They become memory triggers, opening doors to experiences, emotions, and stories that often fade or are forgotten. We also photograph to understand who we are and the world we live in. The camera allows us to investigate the world, ask questions, and discover meanings we might have overlooked. It allows us to push back when things aren’t right and celebrate what is good. Maybe our photographs reveal something about who we are. The subjects we return to, the moments that move us, and the scenes that capture our attention all provide clues about what we value and how we see the world, all acting like a form of self-portraiture. Ultimately, photography may not be about collecting images at all. It may be about collecting these moments and places of attention and creating a deeper connection to the world around us.

Matt Kay is a Cape Town-based photographer who came up through photojournalism, spent formative years on a Texas ranch with a Pulitzer Prize winner he didn't know was a Pulitzer Prize winner, and has spent the better part of two decades thinking seriously about what photography is actually for.In this episode, we get into why a photograph is never real, the collapse of photojournalism and how weddings filled the gap financially, why the boudoir work is less about taking saucy pictures and more about giving someone permission to be seen, and how the saturation of imagery has made it almost impossible for a single photograph to change anything anymore. We also get into snake catching clubs, growing up in the Midlands, and a yellow-billed kite named Napoleon. Enjoy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Elijah Vue's biological father was in prison. The man his mother chose to care for him had a felony for harming a child, trafficking charges, and a federal drug conviction. His mother had once told police that the same man had trafficked her — and then, years later, placed her three-year-old in his apartment for “disciplinary reasons.” There was nowhere safe for this child to land. And no one intervened.The criminal complaint in this case lays out a relationship between Katrina Baur and Jesse Vang that goes back years — through trafficking allegations, federal prison, and a power dynamic Baur herself described to investigators as a “structure” with Elijah's father as “the alpha.” By February 2024, that dynamic had put a toddler inside a Two Rivers apartment where he was being subjected to what Vang called “boot camp.” Standing timeouts lasting hours. Cold water. His one toy confiscated. One diaper change per day. Text messages between Baur and Vang show them coordinating: Vang promised to make the boy hate him, and Baur replied with a correction — not hate, fear.A deleted photograph showed Elijah blindfolded and bruised at 3:13 in the morning. His mother took it, erased it, and drove home. Both Baur and Vang now face felony charges in connection with Elijah's death. Both have pleaded not guilty. Vang faces life in prison. Tony Brueski goes deep on who these people were, how they were connected, and the question that defines this first segment: how did a three-year-old end up surrounded by adults who were either locked up, accused, or complicit — with nobody standing between him and what happened next?Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

With an academic background in social, cultural anthropology and photography, I have spent the last twenty-five years working on projects that have bridged photographic and archival research. I have witnessed the power of photography as a means to connect communities. I have experienced first-hand the benefits to participants of enabling an emotional connection and inspiring a sense of validation, of feeling seen and valued and heard. That their story matters. That they matter. In this talk, we will explore the creative mechanisms involved in making memory visible through photography, stimulating engagement in the present.This lecture was recorded by Julia Winckler on the 7th of May 2026Julia Winckler is a photographer, writer, curator and Principal Lecturer at the University of Brighton's School of Art and Media, where she teaches on MA Photography and MA Fine Art and supervises PhD research. She has exhibited and published widely on memory and migration narratives, contested topographies, émigré photographers and photography as activism. With an academic background in cultural anthropology, social work and photography, she has spent the last 25 years developing projects that bridge photographic and archival research.The transcript of the lecture is available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/making-memoryGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

For most of human history, space has been a place we visited. The next chapter may be about building there.For decades, space was the domain of governments, astronauts, and science fiction. Today, falling launch costs, reusable rockets, and a new generation of ambitious founders are turning orbit into something else entirely: a place to build. The question is no longer whether humanity can construct large-scale infrastructure in space, but what we should build first—and why.In this episode of TechSurge, host Sriram Vishwanath speaks with Dr. Ariel Ekblaw, Founder and CEO of Aurelia Institute, Research Affiliate at MIT's Space Exploration Initiative, and founder of Rendezvous Robotics. Ariel has spent her career exploring one of the most fundamental challenges of the emerging space economy: how to build structures in orbit that are far larger than anything that can fit inside a rocket.Ariel explains the origins of TESSERAE, her pioneering work on autonomous self-assembling space architecture, and how ideas borrowed from biology, swarm intelligence, and modular construction could unlock a future of massive solar arrays, communications infrastructure, orbital laboratories, and eventually human habitats in space.The conversation explores the rapidly emerging market for in-orbit infrastructure, including AI data centers in space, space-based solar power, and the technologies needed to support a permanent industrial presence beyond Earth. Ariel breaks down the engineering realities behind these ideas—why cooling data centers in space is harder than most people assume, how autonomous assembly could solve the scale problem, and why the future of orbital infrastructure may look more like a business park than a collection of standalone satellites.Sriram and Ariel also discuss the broader implications of humanity's return to space: the economics unlocked by reusable launch systems, the opportunities created by dramatically lower transportation costs, and the second-order innovations that may emerge from building an industrial ecosystem in orbit. Along the way, they examine space debris, stewardship of the orbital commons, artificial gravity, and what it will take to make long-term human habitation in space viable.At the heart of the discussion is Ariel's belief that space is not an escape from Earth's problems, but a tool for solving them. Whether through advanced manufacturing, new energy systems, biotechnology research, or entirely new industries, she argues that the next era of space exploration should be focused on improving life here at home.Sign up for our newsletter at techsurgepodcast.com for updates on upcoming TechSurge Live Summits and future episodes.Links:Ariel Ekblaw on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/arielekblawAurelia Institute:https://www.aureliainstitute.orgRendezvous Robotics:https://www.rdvrobotics.comMIT Space Exploration Initiative:https://www.media.mit.edu/groups/space-exploration/overview/How Aurelia is Designing Self-Assembling Space Stations: https://www.fastcompany.com/91242689/how-the-aurelia-institute-is-designing-a-self-assembling-space-stationOverview Energy (Space-Based Solar Power): https://www.overviewenergy.comStarCatcher Industries (Space-to-Space Power Transmission): https://www.starcatcherindustries.comImpulse Space (Orbital Transportation): https://www.impulsespace.comReferences Mentioned During the DiscussionEarthrise - The Apollo 8 Photograph: https://www.nasa.gov/image-article/apollo-8-earthrise/Carl Sagan's “Pale Blue Dot”: https://www.planetary.org/worlds/pale-blue-dotBuckminster Fuller Institute: https://www.bfi.orgWatch Ariel's Talks & InterviewsAurelia Institute YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AureliaInstituteAriel's TED Talk: https://youtu.be/IHrGK3Mu5K4?si=QwGHq1BEoB-QMUjkSpace Business Podcast - Self-Assembling Space Habitats with Ariel Ekblaw: https://spacebusiness.podbean.com/e/137-self-assembling-space-habitats-ariel-ekblaw-founder-ceo-aurelia-institute/Further ReadingNASA's Artemis Program: https://www.nasa.gov/artemisInternational Space Station (ISS): https://www.nasa.gov/international-space-stationAurelia Institute's Vision for Humanity's Future in Space: https://www.aureliainstitute.orgMIT News: Supporting Mission-Driven Space Innovation: https://news.mit.edu/2025/supporting-mission-driven-space-innovation-aurelia-institute-0710Timestamps:[00:00] Highlights[00:34] Welcome to the Episode[02:33] The New Space Race Begins[04:10] Meet Dr. Ariel Ekblaw[06:30] Why We Explore Space?

(6) Bob Zimmerman shares the backstory of the iconic Earthrise photo and the legendary Christmas Eve broadcast. He clarifies that while there was friction over who took the photograph, Bill Anders captured the famous color version. For the broadcast, which reached the largest audience in history, Frank Borman rejected PR advice and instead chose to read from Genesis. The guest notes that this choice aimed to share a message of universal goodwill that transcended specific religions. The reading brought a hush over the world, concluding with the famous sign-off wishing a Merry Christmas to everyone on the "good earth."1955

HT2638 - Photograph As Launch Pad It's easy to fall into the trap of thinking that a photograph is a destination of a viewing process. It's as though seeing a photograph puts a period at the end of an experiential sentence. The reason I call this a trap is because it seems much better to me to consider a photograph as a launch pad for an experience, one that encourages a train of thought, a series of questions, a dialog, a search for meaning and understanding. A photograph that only provides answers is easy to forget. This RSS feed includes only the most recent seven Here's a Thought episodes.

This week on Drinking from the Gardenhose, OB and ED tackle the true modern workplace nightmare: lunchtime meetings, surprise calendar invites, and the silent war for personal time. ED explains his elite-level strategy of blocking off his entire Outlook calendar like a corporate bunker, while OB questions whether anyone actually respects lunch anymore. The guys also dive into gym politics, prom photo etiquette, and the unwritten rules of where certain pictures should—and absolutely should not—be shared. Along the way, ED recounts a genuinely bizarre night at a beer garden involving unsupervised kids and questionable parenting decisions that left both hosts wondering if public behavior has completely unraveled. Throw in concert shirts, golf outing chaos, and one hilariously brutal insult OB has been saving for the right moment, and you've got another episode packed with observational comedy, workplace survival tactics, and pure Gardenhose energy.

Photograph by the incredible Frederikke Jensen We're joined by Dan Kilpatrick to talk through the strange feeling of Tottenham actually giving us something to believe in again. We get into the Villa performance, De Zerbi's immediate impact, whether the Tottenham way actually exists, the power vacuum behind the scenes, Johan Lange's role, Palhinha, Vuskovic, survival, and the deeply uncomfortable question of whether we hate Arsenal more than we love Spurs.

Welcome to episode 581 of the Perceptive Photographer. This week, I am sharing what I hope are five insightful suggestions to help you think differently about your work in your photography and deepen your creative practice. As I was digging into some new books, class prepping and thinking about some classic comedy and photographic techniques, I came up with five simple ideas for you to try out and see if it can jump start soemthnign in your work. When we’re not curious, when we’re not interested in something, it becomes very easy to fall back on cliches. Five and not Six and Half ways to play in your practice 1. Create a Contact SheetRemember contact sheets? Making a contact sheet, digital or printed, shows you all your photos in the order taken. This reveals your natural rhythms, patterns, and how you approach a scene. Are you shooting the same frame multiple times? Do you start wide and move in, or vice versa? Reviewing contact sheets helps you see (and refine) your habits. 2. Watch Out for ClichésIt’s easy to fall into the trap of the “iconic shot”. You know the sunset everyone else gets, the highlight of an event. Yet, what often matters most are the quieter, everyday moments. Next time you find yourself choosing between a crowd-pleaser cliche shot and telling something personal about your day behind the camera, consider what story really matters most for you. Photograph that. 3. Feed Your CuriosityLet intense curiosity guide you. Whether it's the way light falls or a unique gesture on the street, follow what genuinely sparks your interest. When you feel that surge of excitement, slow down and let those moments develop into more meaningful images. 4. Embrace Happy AccidentsSome of the best photographs come from surprises or unplanned moments. Not every shot needs to be perfect. Sometimes unexpected leads to inspiration. Rather than rushing to delete them, pause and consider what you can learn from these “accidents.” you might find your best shots are accidents. I know I have a few of those. 5. Practice “Yes, And…”Borrowing from improv, always do the “yes, and” mindset with your camera.. Don't shut down creative ideas but rather build on them. Same goes for inspiration and influence. Don’t replicate but rather expand the re[liation to new. Extending the conversations with your images by incorporate your unique view Upcoming Events Seattle Friends: Check out Into the Wild at the Seattle Art Museum Art Walk on May 7, 5:30–7:30pm. Free admission! I have four images in the show this month. Whether you make a photograph, doodle in the margins, or shoot hoops with the trash can, try to do something creative this week. Let every click of the shutter be a “yes, and” for your own photographic journey.

LW1502 - Being Immersed in the World of a Photograph The photography I tend to love best is when I find myself immersed in the world of the photograph rather than just shown an instant in time. Think of that photograph by Joseph Sudek looking out his rainy kitchen window. That image immerses me in his life, his surroundings, his mood. Think of Jerry Uelsmann's fanciful worlds that are nonetheless believable. Do you remember the Griffin and Sabine series of books by Nick Bantock? I could probably go on ad infinitum, but the purpose of bringing this up is to perhaps give you a new framework to view your own images.

Photographer Jess T. Dugan and writer Charlotte Cotton join PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf to discuss their 2 volume book, Love Pictures, published by Radius Books. Developed through their friendship and an ongoing dialogue between Dugan and Cotton, Love Pictures explores key themes shaping Dugan's photographic practice, including gender and identity, family and politics, writing and language, the photobook as object, and the dynamics of exhibition spaces. These conversations expand outward to include voices from their broader creative communities, featuring contributors such as Dawoud Bey, Kelli Connell, and Dorothy Moss. In this episode, Jess, Charlotte, and Sasha discuss how this project evolved from an intimate exchange into a comprehensive survey of Dugan's work. Jess T. Dugan Charlotte Cotton Jess T. Dugan (b. 1986, they/them, lives in St. Louis) is an artist whose work explores identity and the complexities of the human condition. While their practice is centered around photography, it also includes writing, video, audio, drawing, and installation. Their work is regularly exhibited internationally and is in the permanent collections of over seventy museums. Charlotte Cotton (b. 1970, lives in London) is a curator and writer who explores photographic culture. She has held positions at the Victoria and Albert Museum, Photographers' Gallery, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Katonah Museum of Art, International Center of Photography, and California Museum of Photography. Her book, The Photograph as Contemporary Art, has been published in fourteen languages and has been a key text in charting the rise of photography as an undisputed art form in this century.

Today, it is considered scholarly to reject the Bible's account of a worldwide flood. Some try to compromise by saying that the flood recorded in the Bible was only a local event. The problem with these scholarly claims is that there were too many witnesses who disagree with them.We can test these scholars' claims. If the Bible's account of a worldwide flood is true, it was witnessed by every person on earth. The story of this event would have been passed down to their descendants and spread across the whole face of the earth.Researchers have catalogued some 270 stories of an ancient, destructive flood in various cultures around the world. A large majority of these stories have been shown to predate any Christian influence. As one would expect, details differ after such a long time. What's remarkable, though, is that where the details of these stories agree with the Bible, they also tend to agree with each other. For example, the ancient Greek flood hero was told to build and stock an ark because the god Zeus wished to destroy humanity. The Aztec story of a universal flood says it took place 1,716 years after the creation of the world—almost the same as the Bible's date! The Babylonian flood story shares seven major details with the Bible's account. Similar stories are found around the world, including Australia, India, Scandinavia, and China.The universality of the flood stories and their similarity to the Bible cannot be explained unless they are based on an event that actually took place.2 Peter 3:5-6“For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:”Prayer: Dear Father in heaven, I thank You that Your Word is sure and true and that it has been accurately preserved to our day. Help me to live Your Word in my life and tell others about the wonderful things You have done. In Jesus' Name. Amen.REF.: Roth, Ariel A. Flood stories—can they be ignored? Origins, v. 17.

6. Zimmerman covers the iconic "Earthrise" photograph and the crew's Christmas Eve television broadcast. He describes how the astronauts chose to read from Genesis to deliver a universal message to a global audience. The broadcast combined high-tech exploration with deep moral significance during a tumultuous era. (6)1918
2. David K. Randall, *The Monster's Bones: The Discovery of T-Rex and How It Shook Our World*. In 1902, Barnum Brown tracked a lead from a photograph of a triceratops skull to Jordan, Montana. Though the specific skull was disappointing, Brown recognized the potential of the remote Hell Creek region. Utilizing his unique skill for reading rock colors, he identified Sheba Mountain as a likely site for fossilization. He used dynamite to reveal a carnivorous dinosaur that had never been described before: the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Brown's discovery was a "jackpot" for the American Museum, even though the process of transporting and mounting the heavy specimen would take years to complete. (2)Butte, MT
