Around The Horn

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 David Masoko, Don McCullin, AI art and nature photography tutorials.
- In Dislocated Presences David Masoko "redefines and refines the idea of street photography -- shifting from the spectacle of the moment to quiet diptychs that explore unconscious gestures, anonymity and the subtle poetics of human presence."
- Emine Saner interviews War Photographer Don McCullin on 19 of His Greatest Pictures. "Over his seven-decade career covering wars, famines and disasters McCullin has been captured and escaped snipers, mortar fire and more," Saner writes. "How does it feel to be a survivor? 'Uncomfortable,' he says."
- Mike Johnston thinks Nobody Likes AI Art. He links to a video showing a dog saving a baby from a falling ceiling as an example. And he also links to an essay by Matthew Inman at The Oatmeal. But if it's AI can it be art? And just because it's fake, is it AI? The suspension of disbelief is a prerequisite for sitting in theater or opening a novel, after all.
- Dahlia Ambrose links to a few Nature Photography Tutorials just in time for the fall foliage season.
