In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at Nacio Jan Brown, a New York Times Pulitzer, Steve Schapiro's images of David Bowie and Mohan Bhasker.
- Tom Dalzell presents a few images by Nacio Jan Brown documenting Telegraph Ave. in Berkeley from 1969 through 1973. Brown himself put his best shots up on Rag Theater where the comments are not to be missed. And there's the book Rag Theater, too.
- The New York Times and Thomson Reuters shared the Pulitzer Prize for breaking news photography for coverage of Europe's refugee crisis. The Times's team includes Mauricio Lima, Sergey Ponomarev, Tyler Hicks and Daniel Etter.
- Emily Anne Epstein presents eight photos, some never published, by Steve Schapiro in Capturing David Bowie. "When David heard that I had photographed Buster Keaton, one of his greatest heroes, we instantly became friends," Schapiro remembers.
- In Cultural Identity Through Music, the Leica Camera Blog presents Mohan Bhasker's black-and-white street and landscape photography of Cuba.
