Sarah Teng And Photographing Iraq

 

Thought this was interesting and great to see the highlight here of photographer Sarah Teng. From the video description:

Photographer Sarah Teng (  / sarah.teng  ) spent nine days in Iraq, immersed in the culture with camera in hand. When she mentioned to friends and family that she was heading to Iraq, the reactions were a mix of surprise and concern. Questions like, “Is it safe?” and “Why Iraq?” were common. But as a photographer driven by curiosity and a desire to capture unique experiences, Sarah saw Iraq as an opportunity to explore a land rich in history, culture, and resilience. It did not disappoint. Read the full article (including gear list): https://petapixel.com/2025/05/19/phot...

Great article with all the gear and thoughts on the landscape, where she went and what lenses she used. 

Long-Exposure Photo Exhibit + Korean American Photographer Atta Kim + NBMAA

Definitely sounds like an interesting exhibit if you can make it.

Change is the only constant in life. That philosophy drives the work of Korean-American photographer Atta Kim, both in his cityscapes and his depictions of human interactions. His artist's statement declares "Disappearance is the reality of all existence. Reality is not clear to us; it must be interpreted to be revealed."

A new exhibit of long-exposure photographs by Kim at the New Britain Museum of American Art, six photos in all, emphasize this transitory nature of human existence, a key feature in Buddhist philosophy, which Kim studies.
