Selvy Ngantung’s Minimal Long Exposure Landscapes are Haunting

A photograph may be viewed for a second, a minute, maybe two. The person that views it seldom, if ever, is held for the same amount of time it took for the photographer to create the image. For landscape photographer Selvy Ngantung, the more time she puts into her work, the better she feels.

The Afghan Girl Has Become The Face of Unwanted Migrants

Sharbat Gula, better known as the Afghan Girl, was deported from Pakistan last week after serving 15 days in jail and a fine of 110,000 rupees (US$1,050) for possessing a fake ID card. At the time, Gula could have faced up to 14 years in prison but the Afghanistan government pleaded for leniency as she was a widow caring for four children and suffering from hepatitis C – the illness which had her serving a majority of her sentence in a local Peshawar hospital. digitalrev.com »
