In a world of perpetual motion, there exists a realm of profound stillness—where light doesn't simply illuminate, it transforms. Far from home amid Earth's frozen tundras, time itself seems suspended in crystalline air. In today's podcast, we'll visit these places where time hangs in the balance, and we'll explore the intrepid mix of endurance, patience, and vision it takes to make pictures there. Joining us for this conversation are polar photography specialists Acacia Johnson and Jonas Paurell. From making distinctions between Arctic and Antarctic regions, to learning about the unique challenges involved with photographing there, our polar experts share many valuable insights. In addition to tips about packing and safeguarding camera gear in cold weather climates, we also discuss the importance of managing expectations during such trips, especially when faced with a long wait to see wildlife amid the barren stillness. As Alaskan photographer Acacia Johnson puts it, “… I think going into a trip with kind of a sense of exploration, like the joy of the trip is that you don't know, and it's completely unique to your experience. And whatever you do see is kind of a gift.”   Guests: Acacia Johnson & Jonas Paurell Episode Timeline: 3:37: Acacia Johnson's upbringing in the wilds of Alaska and leaving the area for photo studies at the Rhode Island School of Design in the lower 48. 7:35: Jonas Paurell's youth in Sweden and the impact his first trek to Scandinavian Arctic regions had on his soul. 14:08: The differences between Arctic and Antarctic polar landscapes, plus Acacia's experiences during a winter in Arctic Bay, with no sun for four months. 29:13: Different approaches to storytelling about the Arctic based on subject matter, and capturing an emotion in images that does justice to the landscape. 37:31: The logistics of getting to Arctic and Antarctic locations, and expenses involved with working and living there. 43:19: The Jubilee Expedition Jonas organized to celebrate the 150th anniversary of a legendary Swedish polar expedition to Svalbard. 51:20: Episode Break 51:38: Preparations for a polar expedition and the camera gear Acacia and Jonas pack. 1:00:31: Using a large format camera on polar expeditions, plus managing gear in extreme cold conditions. 1:06:42: Managing expectations for travelers, misconceptions when planning trips, plus different types of vessels used during expeditions to polar regions. 1:16:42: Cultivating an authentic connection to place when photographing polar regions. 1:21:29: The changing ethics of photographing in polar regions, plus findings from Jonas's Jubilee Expedition Guest Bios: Acacia Johnson is a photographer, writer, and a 2023 National Geographic Explorer based in Anchorage, Alaska. Drawn to painterly light and otherworldly landscapes, her work focuses on the environment, conservation, and connections between people and place. Over the past 10 years, she has made more than fifty expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctica as a photographer and a guide—always seeking to inspire wonder and compassion for these remote regions during a time of rapid change. Her photographs have been exhibited internationally and have been featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, National Geographic and TIME magazines, among other publications. In 2021, Acacia was awarded the Canon Female Photojournalist Grant, and in 2022 she received the ICP Infinity Award for Documentary Practices and Photojournalism. Jonas Paurell is an explorer, conservation photographer, photo educator, and speaker from Gothenburg, Sweden. One of his most ambitious projects is a 25-year documentation of the Arctic. Through ski expeditions and icebreaker voyages, he has captured both the resilience and vulnerability of Arctic landscapes, emphasizing the fragility of the region and the urgent need for preservation. In 2022, Jonas launched The Jubilee Expedition, recreating the historic Swedish Polar Expedition of 1872 to highlight this region's rapid melting and the far-reaching impacts of climate change. Jonas is also founder of Terra Photography Expeditions, which offers immersive workshops in both Arctic regions and South American rainforests, helping photographers deepen their connection with nature while refining their craft. Additionally, before dedicating his life to photography, Jonas served as a human rights lawyer for the United Nations.

There have been so many times that I've made a mental note that I need to include more photojournalism on the show, only to have a mental dog eat my homework. Finally, today, I am checking that off the list. Still, if I'm being honest, it wasn't my mental note that made this show happen. It was a series of events that include an email, a referral, and a conference. It ends out that today's guest had reached out to me directly back in August of last year. His email started with "Hey Steve. I have been a loyal listener to your podcast for years. It's been my favorite photo-related podcast by far. I'd love to be featured on your show.", but unfortunately at the time I wasn't in need of any guests - I try not to book too far out these days. Still, I checked out his work and figured someday I needed to follow up. Then, a few months ago, my buddy Kersten Luts, of the Camera Shake Podcast, mentioned a guest that he'd had on his show, and suggested I should get him on my show. When he mentioned the name, Kevin Painchaud, I had the feeling I had heard of him. Still, I was a bit busy at that point, so I didn't really pursue it. Which brings us to the conference part of the story... In February I want to Imaging USA in Texas, mainly to see some friends, like Larry and the gang from Platypod, and Kersten, who was traveling in from London. While there I met Kevin, and that meeting finally got this show off the ground. Kevin is a photojournalist for Lookout Santa Cruz, or more to the point he's THE photojournalist for the all digital daily news organization. His road to, and through, photojournalism is an interesting one. He fell in love with photography in High School, but then, just shy of his 16th birthday, he was a passenger in a car that hit a tree and rolled down a hill. Kevin ended up badly injured, and in a coma for four days. He woke up on his 16th birthday with a new found gratitude to be alive, and an appreciation for people and their stories. Fast forward to 2023, when Santa Cruz County was battered by relentless atmospheric rivers, and destruction as a result, and Lookout Santa Cruz's newsroom of 10 people was tasked with documenting the devastation and providing critical updates. A year later, that hard work would pay off. The Managing editor, Tamsin McMahon, had spent weeks secretly compiling all the articles, photos, and videos, to create a beautiful timeline of their coverage. Why? She was entering the coverage for a chance at the Pulitzer Prize. That had to be one hell of a Zoom meeting when she told the staff, that had no clue she'd done this, that they had won. Now, with 25 years of experience, Kevin has shot for numerous magazines and newspapers, and his work has been featured on prominent news outlets including ABC News, CBS, The Washington Post, NPR, CNN, and MSNBC. His videos were also featured on ABC's World News Tonight. Kevin has produced several feature films, directed TV show pilots, and even earned an Emmy nomination for his music-focused TV show, Muzic on the Edge. One of Kevin's projects that really intrigues me is that he directed PSAs for Aerosmith. Join Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Kevin Painchaud and me as we discuss his road to photojournalism, and as we dissect his award winning image of the CZU Lightning Complex Fire, on this Behind the Shot.

Film historian Samm Deighan and cult cinema expert Andrew Leavold join Mike to shine a light on Jean-Pierre Melville's Two Men in Manhattan (1959). Often overshadowed by his better-known crime films, this moody noir follows a journalist and a photographer as they comb the streets of New York in search of a missing French diplomat. The trio digs into Melville's fascination with American style, the film's ethically murky characters, and how it fits within the director's larger body of work. They also explore the tension between documentary realism and stylized noir, and why Two Men in Manhattan deserves a second look. Author Ginette Vincendeau (Jean-Pierre Melville: An American in Paris), discusses this unique entry in Melville's filmography. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

Marcus Bleasdale has spent his life in places most of us would struggle to imagine, photographically documenting conflict zones and communities caught in the crossfire of politics and profit. In this conversation within The Photowalk show, Marcus talks about the responsibility of witnessing brutal truths, from child labour in the Democratic Republic of Congo to the mining of conflict minerals used in our phones and tech, and how his book The Unravelling, forces us to reckon with the uncomfortable fact that everyday convenience often comes at someone else's expense. The mailbag is back and in today's: Spike Boydell sends in a film link that had me properly thinking about connection. Jerilyn Owen shares how making a self-portrait is helping her learn acceptance.

In this episode, I'm joined by Ian Beesley, the acclaimed social documentary photographer whose work has captured the changing face of the North of England for over four decades. From documenting the decline of heavy industry to the resilience of working-class communities, Ian's photographs are raw, honest, and deeply human. We talk about memory, place, humour, and the role of photography in giving voice to people and stories often overlooked. It's a conversation about seeing, really seeing, the world around us and using a camera not just to document but to care. Also on the show, Valérie Jardin returns for the monthly Teach Me Street feature, and there's a reminder of the latest one-word assignment set by the photojournalist Claire Thomas. The mailbag returns next week.

Fluent Fiction - Serbian: Dreams Brewed at Savane: A Café Art Transformation Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/sr/episode/2025-02-23-23-34-02-sr Story Transcript:Sr: У средишту лепог града Саване, где се зими дрвеће гиздаво шепури и облаци крећу хладним небом, налазила се мала кафетерија.En: In the center of the beautiful city of Savane, where in winter the trees strut proudly and clouds move across the cold sky, there was a small café.Sr: Била је топла и пријатна, са дрвеним столовима и мирисима свјеже скуване кафе који су се мешали са звуцима тихих разговора.En: It was warm and cozy, with wooden tables and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee mixing with the sounds of quiet conversations.Sr: Унутра, радили су Милош и Јована, два бариста са великим сновима и осмесима пуним наде.En: Inside, worked Milos and Jovana, two baristas with big dreams and smiles full of hope.Sr: Милош је био тих, али радознао младић, увек са фотоапаратом на готовс.En: Milos was a quiet but curious young man, always with a camera at the ready.Sr: Радио је у кафетерији како би зарадио новац за нови фотоапарат, а сањарио је о свету фото-новинарства.En: He worked at the café to earn money for a new camera and dreamed of a world of photojournalism.Sr: Јована, с друге стране, била је отворена и друштвена, осlikavajuћи у слободно време слике пуне боја и маште.En: Jovana, on the other hand, was open and sociable, painting colorful and imaginative pictures in her spare time.Sr: Њен сан је био да организује изложбу својих слика у галеријама широм света, иако се борила са критикама своје породице.En: Her dream was to organize an exhibition of her paintings in galleries around the world, even though she struggled with her family's criticisms.Sr: Обично, након завршене смене, Милош би закључавао свој фотоапарат у шкафу, осећајући се непримећено и помало разочарано.En: Usually, after finishing his shift, Milos would lock his camera in a cabinet, feeling unnoticed and somewhat disappointed.Sr: Јована би осмехом поздравила муштерије, али би након радна дана размишљала о мишљењима своје породице.En: Jovana would greet customers with a smile, but after the workday, she'd contemplate her family's opinions.Sr: Једна хладна вечер док је снег танко покривао улице, Јована је гледала како Милош слаже шољице за кафу.En: One cold evening, as snow lightly covered the streets, Jovana watched Milos stack coffee cups.Sr: Донијела је одлуку: "Треба да урадимо изложбу овде, у кафетерији," предложила је узбуђено.En: She made a decision: "We should have an exhibition here, in the café," she suggested excitedly.Sr: "Твоје фотографије и моје слике."En: "Your photos and my paintings."Sr: Милош је оклевао, још увек несигуран у себе.En: Milos hesitated, still unsure of himself.Sr: "Нисам сигуран... можда нико не би дошао."En: "I'm not sure... maybe no one would come."Sr: "Али шта ако дођу?" упитала је Јована са искрицом у очима.En: "But what if they do?" Jovana asked with a sparkle in her eyes.Sr: Након много разговора и размишљања, одлучили су покушати.En: After much discussion and thought, they decided to try.Sr: Следећег викенда, кафетерија се претворила у малу галерију.En: The following weekend, the café transformed into a small gallery.Sr: Јоване су окачиле слике на зидове, а Милош је пажљиво поставио своје фотографије на истакнуте позиције.En: Jovana's paintings adorned the walls, and Milos carefully placed his photographs in prominent positions.Sr: Како су вече вирили у кафетерију, клијенти су почели застајати, интересујући се за оно што виде.En: As the evening unfolded in the café, customers began stopping by, intrigued by what they saw.Sr: Коментари су летели, и сви су били искрено задивљени.En: Comments flew, and everyone was genuinely impressed.Sr: Јована и Милош су били изненађени колико су позитивне реакције добили.En: Jovana and Milos were surprised by how positive the reactions were.Sr: На крају вечери Милош је осетио како му самопоуздање расте.En: By the end of the evening, Milos felt his confidence grow.Sr: "Можда бих требао више веровати у себе," рекао је тихо док су затварали кафетерију.En: "Maybe I should have more faith in myself," he said quietly as they closed the café.Sr: "А ја треба да пратим своје снове," додала је Јована са осмехом.En: "And I need to follow my dreams," added Jovana with a smile.Sr: Њихове креације су изазвале праву лавину позитивних реакција, и обоје су схватили да пут знања и откривања може бити леп и испуњен ако само верују у себе и своје способности.En: Their creations sparked a wave of positive reactions, and both realized that the journey of learning and discovery could be beautiful and fulfilling if only they believe in themselves and their abilities.Sr: Милош и Јована су нашли наду и нову одлучност, спремни да коракну напред ка својим сновима, без обзира на препреке.En: Milos and Jovana found hope and new determination, ready to step forward toward their dreams, regardless of the obstacles.

Instagram has changed how people appreciate photography by allowing users to easily alter images with filters, blurring the lines between reality and artifice. The rise of AI further complicates matters by making it difficult to distinguish between real and fake images. While photojournalists still use Instagram to showcase their work, they are increasingly concerned about maintaining the authenticity of their images in an era where anyone can be a photographer and manipulate reality. Despite these challenges, photojournalism remains important for documenting and preserving truth, and photojournalists must adhere to ethical guidelines to ensure the credibility of their work. Show Clip from The Paris Chong Show with Barbara Davidson https://youtu.be/RqMNUSaB36Y https://www.theparischongshow.com

We live in a violent and complex world—wars, mass migrations, cartel violence, climate disasters, and pandemics shape our daily reality. Yet, despite constant exposure to brutality, many of us still feel appalled, angered, and outraged. That's due in large part to journalists who bring these stories to light—not to shock, but to deepen our understanding of the world as it truly is. Fabio Bucciarelli is one of them. A world-class photojournalist and storyteller, he documents some of the most dangerous places on Earth. Listen as he shares what drives him to keep returning to the front lines, capturing the stories that must be told.

Photojournalism is more than just taking pictures; it's about capturing the essence of events as they unfold, often in the most challenging circumstances. During the Trump rally assassination attempt, the true spirit of photojournalism was on full display. Four seasoned photographers stood their ground in the photo pit while an intern, understandably, fled the scene. This incident highlights the bravery required in this field and underscores the dedication to getting the shot that tells the story...

In Utopian Ruins: A Memorial Museum of the Mao Era (Duke University Press, 2020) Jie Li traces the creation, preservation, and elision of memories about China's Mao era by envisioning a virtual museum that reckons with both its utopian yearnings and its cataclysmic reverberations.  Li proposes a critical framework for understanding the documentation and transmission of the socialist past that mediates between nostalgia and trauma, anticipation and retrospection, propaganda and testimony. Assembling each chapter like a memorial exhibit, Li explores how corporeal traces, archival documents, camera images, and material relics serve as commemorative media. Prison writings and police files reveal the infrastructure of state surveillance and testify to revolutionary ideals and violence, victimhood and complicity.  Photojournalism from the Great Leap Forward and documentaries from the Cultural Revolution promoted faith in communist miracles while excluding darker realities, whereas Mao memorabilia collections, factory ruins, and memorials at trauma sites remind audiences of the Chinese Revolution's unrealized dreams and staggering losses.

Top shot © Ron Tarver Cowboy lore has deep roots in American culture. Yet, black cowboys have lived pretty much under the radar until recently, when songs by pop culture icons Lil Nas X and Beyoncé went viral and catapulted the black western aesthetic into the limelight. In today's show, we're getting the inside scoop from two photographers who've been fully immersed in these vibrant communities since long before they became a top fashion trend. Separated by a generation in age and with pictures spanning from film to digital, we follow Ron Tarver and Ivan McClellan from their early years in Oklahoma and Kansas, to the urban stables of Northern Philadelphia, the legendary Roy LeBlanc Rodeo in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, and beyond. Listen in and discover how the popularity of a single newspaper assignment led Ron to the pages of National Geographic and a career defining body of work. In a similar manner, Ivan's hunch to act on a chance invitation morphed into a passion project that reconnected him to his midwestern roots and ultimately expanded his role from photographer to that of an entrepreneur and rodeo boss.  Ever wonder about the funding and stamina required to compete as a rodeo athlete? We take that bull by the horns at the end of the show. Guests: Ron Tarver & Ivan McClellan Episode Timeline: 4:09: Ron Tarver and Ivan McClellan's early memories of cowboy culture during their respective youths in Kansas City and Fort Gibson, Oklahoma. 9:19: Ron's early story for the Philadelphia Inquirer and his subsequent documentation of black cowboy culture. 15:06: The camera gear and film stock Ron used for his pictures, plus digitizing analog slides using a digital camera, macro lens and bellows system. 20:15: Technical limitations Ron faced when shooting film, and his editing process when working with National Geographic. 23:19: Ivan's start as a designer, his introduction to photography and the world of black cowboys, and his shooting process at the rodeo. 33:40: The dominance of women within black rodeos, a female horse whisperer, and tips for photographing horses in a rodeo context. 44:34: Episode Break 45:35: The journey behind our guest's respective books, and Ron's collaboration with a noted editor to create The Long Ride Home. 51:19: The back story to Ivan's book—from a self-published Kickstarter release to the editor he worked with to get Eight Seconds published by Damiani. 57:10: Ivan and Ron discuss each other's finished book projects, questions about model releases, plus the current hunger for black cowboy culture.  1:05:23: Ivan's work to promote black rodeo athletes and the economics of competing in this arena. 1:10:39: How Ivan's life has changed since founding the Eight Seconds rodeo in Portland, Oregon. 1:16:04: The impact of Ivan's work on the lives of rodeo athletes, and the maximum number of bulls a rodeo athlete can ride in a single day.  Guest Bios: Ron Tarver was born and raised in Fort Gibson, Oklahoma, and is now based outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. During 32 years as a staffer at The Philadelphia Inquirer, he was nominated for three Pulitzer's and shared the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for public service, in addition to many other accolades. Tarver's photographs have been exhibited internationally. His pictures can be found in private, corporate, and museum collections, and have appeared in major publications both in print and online.  In 2004, he co-authored the book We Were There: Voices of African American Veterans, published by Harper Collins, accompanied by a traveling exhibition. A recipient of a 2021 Guggenheim Fellowship and a 2001 Pew Fellowship in the Arts, Tarver has also received funding from the NEA, the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, and an Independence Foundation Fellowship.  He currently serves as Associate Professor of Art at Swarthmore College. His book, The Long Ride Home: Black Cowboys in America was released by George F Thompson Publishers in September. Ivan McClellan is a photojournalist and designer originally from Kansas City, Missouri. These days he calls Portland, Oregon home.  His work reveals marginalized aspects of black culture, challenging broad assumptions and myths about racial identity in America.  His project Eight Seconds, focuses on elevating narratives about American Black cowboys, and transforming the culture of the American West by ‘re-centering' black women and men back as an integral part of our historical narrative.  After initially self-publishing his photos in book form, Eight Seconds: Black Rodeo Culture was released by Damiani books in April 2024. The winner of the 2022 Getty Inclusion grant, McClellan's photos have been presented in and collected by Museums and cultural spaces across the United States. His work has also been featured in ESPN: The Undefeated and Fast Company.  As an experience designer for Adobe Lightroom, he has led projects for Nike, Adidas, Disney, and the U.S. National Soccer Team. And most recently, he founded the Eight Seconds Rodeo in 2023.

Sometimes their subjects are picnicking in a park or tending a garden. Other times, they're repairing a ceiling damaged by shelling or waiting for departure on an evacuation train. Anastasia and Alisa have been working together in Ukraine since the Maidan Revolution, also known as the “Revolution of Dignity” in 2014.

A photographer's success hinges on access. This is an underlying thread in the tapestry woven in this week's show. Our discussion covers multiple facets and cultural attributes of Indian society, as seen through the eyes of a photographer with a knack for being in the right place at the right time. In this month's episode of the series, Picturing World Cultures, we speak with Indian photographer Pablo Bartholomew about his long career as a documentarian and photojournalist. From his early intimate views of 60s-era hippies launching a counterculture invasion from the West to his photojournalistic coverage of historic events, Bartholomew shares insights about dynamics at work behind the scenes. We also discuss changes to the marketplace for pictures over time, and whether an iconic picture is still able to affect a change in the world. As an antidote to a life chasing the news, Bartholomew embarked on a ten-year documentation of India's remote Naga tribes. In the show's second half, he walks us through his background research and the permissions process involved in photographing tribespeople and their customs with professional lighting gear.  There's also a personal motivation behind Bartholomew's Naga Project. As a child, he had heard many stories about goodwill the Naga showed his father's family during their flight from Burma to India during World War II.  “Principally, what I couldn't wrap my head around was that headhunters, they're supposed to be these ferocious people. Why would they let fair game pass through their backyard, to the degree where they would provide food and shelter?” he says. “So, there was in this savage something very kind. And I wanted to find out what the contradiction was.” Tune in today for more on the Naga tribes and other stories from India!

His father Richard was a noted art critic as well as a photographer, allowing Pablo to learn photography at home at a very young age. In his subsequent career of nearly fifty years, Pablo has documented societies in conflict and transition, while also recording intimate details of his own generation maturing amid a changing India. From 1983 to 2004, his photojournalistic work was featured in every major international publication, from National Geographic to Paris Match and beyond. Pablo's photographs have been recognized by World Press Photo on three different occasions, including a 1985 ‘Picture of the Year' award for his riveting image from the Bhopal gas tragedy. In 2013, he was awarded the Padma Shri by the Government of India for his contributions to photography, and in 2014, he was honored with the status of Chevalier de L'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French government.
