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. This time we look at Wayne Levin, Dan Ryan, a little history, event photography, gloves and stock design trends.
- In Engaging Public Discourse on Climate Change Through Photography, Miss Rosen profiles Wayne Levin, who now teaches photography at the University of Hawaii and shoots black-and-white underwater seascapes.
- Andrew Molitor reviews Dan Ryan's Tokyo Panic Stories, a free photobook of street photography Ryan worked on for eight years. "To my eye, this book is the photographer trying to penetrate the wall that separates him from his subjects," Molitor writes. "The wall of culture, of language, of socio-economic status."
- Light Stalking's A History of Photography and How It Shaped the World is a lengthy piece focused on the technical developments.
- Kirk Tuck reflects on the persistence of Event Photography in a world that had predicted it away. "As a culture that no longer reads text, the primacy of 'monkey see/monkey do' has become, de facto, the only way that many people are now capable of learning new stuff," he suggests.
- Jon Sienkiewicz reviews Four Handy Gloves for Winter Photography. Well, of course, they're handy.
- Senior content marketing manager and editor at Adobe Stock Irene Malatesta list Four Design Trends That Will Define 2020.
