[Afterimage Magazine: Special "Photography & War" Issue]

Afterimage Magazine, published by the Visual Studies Workshop, is one of the country's leading journals of media arts and cultural criticism. Their June/July issue [Vol. 31, #6] features articles on "Photography and War." By special arrangement with Afterimage, Camera/Iraq is pleased to present articles— otherwise unavailable on the internet—from this issue. In the next weeks, look for a special project on war and photography from Afterimage and Camera/Iraq that invites writing and images from the public.

Editorial: Bruno Chalifour, Editor
"This issue of Afterimage is not meant to be a pessimistic note about human nature, it is dedicated to “Photography and War," a topic that, unfortunately, never goes out of fashion. In 1973 Donald McCullin asked the question Is Anyone Taking Any Notice? in a book published by the MIT Press. James Natchwey echoed it in 1999 with his Inferno (Phaidon). It took the events of 9/11/2001 to make the world press and readership pay attention, an attention that seems to have been carefully monitored. Although through this issue of Afterimage, you will find roots and room for frustration if not pessimism, we do hope, that by providing a variety of points of view, we will help in the current debate."

I`ve read a comment which says "I want to go to Iraq for the photo opportunities". Think of it this way.. If your family was slaughtered by foreign soldires, and some stranger from that country would think that would be a great photo opportunity, would that be ok? Don't think so.

Thanks for all the great info! I'm still new to Twitter and this was so helpful! I was wondering how it works when you want to respond to something somebody said.

"The recent actions of Boston City Councilor Chuck Turner were reckless and inflammatory. With no regard for truth or consequences, Turner unveiled graphic photographs at a Tuesday press conference, suggesting that the images portrayed the rape of Iraqi women by US soldiers. The display was an all-time low for a member of the City Council. Turner, now in his third term, used twisted logic to justify the photo array. While stopping short of claiming authenticity, Turner argued that "the American people have a right and responsibility to see the pictures" in light of recent revelations regarding abuse of Iraqi prisoners."

By this software one can add some written description to every photo. When I move photos to another computer I don't want the description to be lost.
Do you propose any other freeware photo organizer so that moving the photos with their descriptions is simpler?

I bought and installed snow tires last year and threw out old tires since they were worn. In the spring, I bought new set of tires and have snow tires unmounted.

Now winter comes again. I want to have the old snow tires mounted. I heard somewhere that the rim cannot afford too many times of mounting and remounting. Is this true? Should I buy rims to go with the snow tires? What are the problems if I don't buy extra rims?

Thanks in advance.
