"But they told me that 90 percent of the people who were in my book were either in jail or had been killed."
- Kenneth Hines Jr., the photographer behind this year's Lightroom splash page, finds Beauty in Everyday Moments. "I love the editing aspect of my process and I know a lot of people aren't aware of just how powerful Lightroom is," he says.
- In Photographing Natural Disasters: Ideas & Ethics, Ellyn Kail asked four photojournalists about their work on the frontlines of fires, floods and hurricanes. She also links to the National Press Photographers Association code of ethics.
