SOCIAL NETWORKING REFLECTIONS FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS
Photo © John Brown All Rights Reserved - Follow Me On Twitter
I've taken a few months off blogging to try and more closely understand the Social Networking platforms and I have learned quite a bit.
First of all, every photographer wll benefit fom downloading and reading the great Photoshelter report regarding social networking. Hats off to Alan Murayabashi and the crew there. They are great people who REALLY DO like photography!!!!!
It's helped me update my LinkedIn pages as well as my Facebook participation.
Our GAIA PHOTOS FAN PAGE now has nearly 1000 members and continues to grow steadily thanks to the efforts of the 60 GAIA PHOTOS Photographers.
I have also watched Magnum Photos photographer John Vink start tweeting on Twitter from right here in Cambodia. Keep an eye on him, he's doing important work here.
Next month I'll share some of my experiences with everyone, such as how to get organized and why it's so important.

Photography Guest Of The Week Alexey Pivovarov
Just twenty-nine years old, photojournalist Alexey Pivovarov is making quite a name for himself. In fact, he's actually based in two countries, Italy and Russia. Alexey is a native of Chelyabinsk, the capital of the South Ural region of the Soviet Union, and graduated from the Saint Petersburg State University of Culture. In 2004 he began working at Prospekt, an Italian photography agency, and has specialized in photojournalism since.
Not only does Alexey research his subject while capturing images that stand out for their candid portrayals, he writes about what he sees and how he feels with great understanding. Alexey's family is growing with the addition of his new son Ivan but he has found the time to post a couple of great photo stories at Gaia Photos where, like me, he is a member.
If you don't know about Gaia Photos yet, it's a group of photojournalists that is starting to become a great resource for editors from around the world needing to enhance their media products.
Now that you know a little bit about Alexey Pivovarov, surf on over HERE to see a bit of his photography. You can also keep up with Alexey by following his blog just like I do! While you are at it, please have a look at Gaia Photos too!

Photography Guest Of The Week Morten Svenningsen
Morten Svenningsen is quite a creative young man who I wanted to introduce you all to as this blog's first Guest Photographer of the Week. He is based in Nepal where he lives with his family. Morten enjoys coherent groups of people interacting and to that end founded Gaia Photos, comprised of a group of photojournalists that is rapidly becoming a trusted source for editors from around the world. Morten is also a music lover and a terrific author who writes a blog too. This guy does it all while producing great photography.!
Morton was born in Denmark in 1974. After working a few years as an engineer (microwave electronics) he graduated from Copenhagen Media School in 2004 and has been working as a freelance photojournalist since then. He won the title of Danish travel photographer of the year in 2005 and his writing and photography work has appeared in several magazines, books and newspapers around the world. His main interests are in the socio-political fields, and he primarily focuses on inequality and the transcendence of human suffering. Morten is also the director of Gaia Photos.
