Pop Photo's 25 Best Places To Photograph

Popular Photo Magazine has published a feature titled 25 Best Places To Photograph after running a poll amongst various documentary and travel photographers who are drawn to cultures far-removed from ours both geographically and chronologically.

The photographers are, amongst others, Chris Rainier recommending New Guinea, Carolyn Drake recommending Xinjiang, and Andrea Pistolesi recommending Sicily.

Jaipur was recommended as one of the best places to photograph but in my view, that city pales in comparison to a hundred of other more picturesque places in India.

I could have easily straighten that out had I been asked.

And what about Nepal, Bhutan, Bali, Vietnam, Ethiopia....?

Light & Composition Magazine

I'm always on the lookout for new and innovative venues in which photographers (and especially travel photographers) can feature their work, and Light & Composition Magazine appeared on my radar screen via The Raw File Blog's Twitter's Feed.

Light and Composition defines itself as a monthly photography magazine that aims to inspire people towards the true essence of photography, and attempts to take us around the world, to its people, nature, and culture, in pursuit of value and authenticity.

It also featured Around The World in 29 Days, which allowed it to showcase photos from around the world, through the lenses of twenty photographers. From northern Spain to the Bay of Bengal in Bangladesh, from villages in Thailand to the USA, and from the Middle East to the far west.
