This is my tribute to newscaster and broadcast journalist Walter Cronkite, whom I had the privilege to meet in New York in the summer of 1967. Cronkite, who already at that time was an institution, was also a most friendly and generous person. I wonder which other "mega star" would have given half an hour of a busy newsday to an unknown 19 year old fledgling television news reporter from Finland? To have Cronkite showing me around in the CBS news studio and tellingme about his work, was an experience I will never forget.
My colorization of a 1985 photo by Rob Bogaerts in the Dutch Nationaal Archief collection.
"Walter Leland Cronkite Jr. (November 4, 1916 – July 17, 2009) was an American broadcast journalist who served as anchorman for the CBS Evening News for 19 years (1962–1981). During the 1960s and 1970s, he was often cited as "the most trusted man in America" after being so named in an opinion poll. Cronkite reported many events from 1937 to 1981, including bombings in World War II; the Nuremberg trials; combat in the Vietnam War; the Dawson's Field hijackings; Watergate; the Iran Hostage Crisis; and the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, civil rights pioneer Martin Luther King Jr., and Beatles musician John Lennon. He was also known for his extensive coverage of the U.S. space program, from Project Mercury to the Moon landings to the Space Shuttle. He was the only non-NASA recipient of an Ambassador of Exploration award. Cronkite is known for his departing catchphrase, "And that's the way it is", followed by the date of the broadcast."(Wikipedia)
Democracy in Venezuela is about to die, It has slowly been eroded for 9 years by a government that was elected by popular vote. But has systematically concentrated power on the president and discriminated opposers.
In Venezuela you can no longer think differently from the official view.
Those of us who oppose the regime are criminalized, many journalists have had to go on exile, there are political prisoners that have been for years in trails or processes that don’t go anywhere, some opposition political figures are in liberty but under constant harassment by the executive and judicial. Anyone who opposes can expect insults and defamation by the highest government officials and violence from its followers.
But the Venezuelan democracy will die on December 2, if a proposed constitutional reform is approved.
President Hugo Chavez, has design a constitutional reform that will modify 69 articles of the current constitution. A reform that is unconstitutional itself, because it changes the basic principles of the constitution and the definition of the Venezuelan State, which is in direct violation of itself, according to it modification of basic principles can’t be modified with a reform (Art 342), a Constitutional Assembly has to be convoked instead, to make a new constitution via vote.
The illegitimacy of the reform, if approved, is far from the only concern. The state will be defined as Socialist, and the exercise of the means of democratic participation like vote and participation on public office will have to be for the construction of socialism, making illegitimate any action by people of different political views, destroying political pluralism. In violation of the Human Rights (proposed art. 16, 70) (Violation of the art. 21 and 32 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights), and Chavez could reelect himself indefinitely.

My homage to US journalist James Foley and family !
There is nothing in the World that justified the brutal murder of a men of Freedom, Photographer and Journalist.
The writer Virginia Woolf and her husband, the political activist, journalist and editor Leonard Woolf, bought the house in 1919, and received there many visitors connected to the Bloomsbury Group, including T. S. Eliot, E. M. Forster, Roger Fry and Lytton Strachey.
Originally a weekend retreat, the Woolfs spent more and more time in Rodmell, eventually living there full-time from 1940 when their flat in Mecklenburgh Square, Bloomsbury, London, was damaged during an air raid.
The solitude of village life allowed Virginia respite from the tumult of London, and it was in the small wooden lodge at the bottom of the garden that many of her novels took shape. Jacob's Room, published in 1922, Mrs Dalloway (1925), To The Lighthouse (1927), Orlando (1928), The Waves (1931), The Years (1937) and Between The Acts (1941), as well as other works, were also written there. Her final novel, Between the Acts, published posthumously in July 1941, is steeped in references to Rodmell and the traditions and values of its villagers. [Wikipedia]
Long suffering from periods of depression, in March 1941, Virginia filled the pockets of her mink coat with heavy rocks and committed suicide by drowning herself in the nearby River Ouse.
As a photojournalist, Sam Hood provided photos for newspapers including the Sydney Mail, Australasian, Daily Guardian, Sun and Sydney Morning Herald. He covered many of Australia’s landmark events, but on this occasion Hood captured a more personal moment. While covering a polo match, he photographed a man — perhaps a fellow journalist — asleep at the wheel of a car. Hood’s composition leaves the match in the background hanging like a ‘dream bubble’ over his head. PXE 789 (v.50) collection.sl.nsw.gov.au/record/nQRq2gd1/PaDqvXpLqwgL2

My uncle just passed away a week ago and he was a journalist and well known historian in the Netherlands. I am receiving articles about him and the one mentioned him as a "gentleman journalist". This scene today at the Remembrance Day Ceremony made me think of him. There is a fine line between recording events as a journalist and respecting the significance of the moment. This soldier was doing his best to reflect on the moment ahead of him while behind him the media was making sure others who could not make it to the cenotaph, could see it on tv or read about it in the paper. I wonder how my uncle would have handled this moment knowing that the Canadian soldiers helped give his family freedom in the Netherlands.

Unknown female journalist, at a former car park off Venns Lane, Hereford, Herefordshire, England, United Kingdom. Date unknown, but circa October 1987 to circa March 1989.
About the photograph.
This lady is a journalist, she is a reporter for a local radio station. That is all I can tell, I don’t know what radio station she worked for, who she is, or anything like that. I think her car was unmarked and did not show company logos, even if it did, I don’t remember as it was like a long time ago.
Between 1987 to 1989, I attended a college course in graphic design, at a local college which is only about 5 to 10 minute walk from where this photograph was taken.
In those days, computers were mainly for work like in offices, as computers at home, for personal use was like a luxury not everybody can afford. While the Internet exists, it was only for the military, universities, offices, and was mostly text based information. The World Wide Web and browsers for home and personal use didn’t take off until the 1990s. The early mobile phones were mainly shaped like a brick and was only used for voice communications.
Therefore there was no Twitter, no Facebook, no social media like you have today.
I was unaware of what was going on, it was only when I noticed an activity outside, either when I was coming back to the art building from break time, or from the window at the top floor, and I went to ask one of my tutors, to enquiry what is going on.
That was when I was told college students were going on a march through city centre, in a protest as the British government which was planning on scraping grants and replacing it with loans for students.
I asked my tutor if I could be excused from my class, which was studying graphic design, and I really wanted to be a photographer, so my tutor agreed. Thankfully I had my Minolta X-700 35mm camera with me, and I asked if I could have some more spare rolls of film from the supply cupboard. Permissions granted, I went to grab as many as I could fill my pockets with, and off I went.
The march had not started yet, the students were gathering around at a car park off Venns Lane, which is now used as a private hospital called Nuffield Health Hospital. (One of my black and white photos in my Photostream, under the title “Cops” was taken at the same place.)
I started looking around for subjects to shoot, noticed her, and took a photo of her.
As far as I know, she was one of the very few journalist who were using the car park to get ready, just like the students and the police were getting ready, it was the starting point. It was not a big national news, just a local news.
Afterwards, I went along on the march, trying to take photos of the protest. You can see more of those photos in either two of my albums, one is titled Black and White or the other one titled Minolta X-700.
When it was done, I developed and printed the photographs myself, and thankfully still have the prints. I simply scanned the prints using my Brother multifaction printer/fax/scanner, and saved the image in my computer, for uploading to Flickr.
What is this all about?
At that time, the British government under then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, had decided that funding to help students should be done by means of loans, which would need to be paid back by the students when they leave college and get jobs, not by grants.
But students all over the UK are not happy with this, and are protesting against this idea. The college I attended was one of the colleges that took part in the protest.
That is why they’re saying ”Grants Not Loans.”
I have a few photos of the protests in two of my albums, just look in either Black and White or Minolta X-700.

Last night members from the United States 75th Ranger Regiment located and liberated captured photojournalist reporter Jake March. March was captured by Mujahideen forces in northern Afghanistan last September.
March has been embedded with Marines, Army, and even the elusive Special Forces groups including Green Berets and accompanying Navy SEALs on several missions throughout Iraq, Afghanistan, and locations in Africa.
While missing his fellow reporters tapped every local contact they had in the attempt to locate him ultimately resulting in several leads which led to his rescue.
March says he now plans to take some time at home before re-embedding with American forces on the front lines.

Male journalist, at a factory, somewhere in Worcester, Worcestershire, England, United Kingdom. Date unknown, but circa 1992-94.
About the photograph.
This is a local newspaper journalist, the one seen here with the camera, attending an event at a local factory.
The factory is one of those companies that makes either the majority of the parts or even an engine, for an open wheeled single seat racing car, like a Formula One car, which you can see in the right side of the photo. The factory allowed a group of school children to attend a tour, to talk about engineering works on stuff like that, possibly to let those kids think about their future.
Because of this, the local newspaper sent us, that’s him and me, to attend and report about it. I’ll explain why I’m there in the next section below.
What is this all about?
I am a deaf person, I attended a deaf school ran by hearing teachers, and in my last year (1985-86) at school, my class were learning about jobs and work. The teacher and the visiting career advisor were to tell us about jobs, like difference between part-time and full-time, and stuff like that. They also talk to us about what kind of jobs and future we wanted to have, and also to see what needs to be done after school. Like to see if arrangements can be set up for some to get a job after leaving school, or if some of us need to attend college.
I admit my first choice was to become a diver, but my teacher dismissed it as something I can’t do because of my being deaf. I had at least 3 or 4 other ideas, but all were shot down. It is easy to look back and realised that was discrimination.
My next idea was to become a photographer. I really wanted to, I want to be a photographer, and wanted to study photography. Again, he dismissed it, but I decided to put my foot down, and stick with it. I keep trying to ask for a college course in photography, they keep asking me to rethink my options.
As time was running out, they all agreed to make arrangements for me to attend a one-year college course, which is really more of a further education course. Once again, I keep asking for a college course in photography after that course.
Finally they got me a two year college course, but it was more of training course. I had three days on-the-job training, working for a professional photographer, and two days at college, studying graphic design.
After leaving college, I struggled with trying to get a job in photography, because during those days, the early 1990s, there were still discrimination against disabled people.
I think maybe around 1993, the Job Centre got me a short term training course, in helping improve my job seeking chances, and I managed to ask if I could have a volunteer work in photography, and somehow got a placement with a local newspaper’s photography department.
I was there, familiarise myself with how photojournalist work, and learn the ropes. I was told to go with this journalist to attend this event, and while he was taking photographs for the newspaper, I was taking photographs of him for myself.
It was only a few weeks, but enough for me to want to push harder, and try to get into photography as careers, even if I still face discrimination.

War is black and white / them and us / with us being rightful / and them awful. // So what am I doing here / as embedded journalist?
(installation, recycling art)
This is the result of 3 hours of work pasting all those sheets of newspaper to the wall.. by the end of the day I was really exhausted because the sheets were flying way so I had to paste them again...
I also was afraid to work with B&W because it isn't my strong, but the light was perfect so I decided to do it that way.
My mom helped me a lot shooting this so I thank her a lot!
