THEY SHOOT FILM: A PHOTO COLLECTIVE

They stand firm in their love for film photography.  Everything is shot in 35mm film in spite of the growing digitization of all things art.  Here's another plus: they're from San Francisco and Los Angeles.  (Sweet!)  Check out their photos.

The Big Picture is one of my favorite photography blogs out there in the blogosphere. It's the official photoblog of the Boston Globe and one of the most important outlets of professional photography. The photographs featured come from the world's top news agencies such as AP and Reuters.

Check out this photo that perfectly depicts the Ivory Coast election stalemate. With two opposing governments, one in power while the world insists that it must fall, the other, fully supported by the UN (does that even say much?). When you look at the photo, focal points arouse intense emotion. You can see struggle, you can see a reach for hope, you can see a future as Cote d'Ivoire catches up with western world technology.  Attention on the people.  All hands on deck.
