David Alan Harvey's blog



One of the most interesting and most inspiring blogs I follow almost daily is that of David Alan Harvey (see links on the right). He is not only a legend at Magnum and can therefore write eloquently about photography (and rubs shoulders with the who is who of photography in the US/world) but writes intelligently about life in general.

I was fortunate enough to attend one of his workshops in 2004 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In fact, the workshop in Santa Fe that he ran was one of my first and one that eventually paved the way for me to become more serious about photography. David is not only an inspiring teacher and a highly regarded photographer (he has just published a book about hip hop and published a book on the Hispanic culture “Divided Soul” before) but is also very generous with his time for students and aspiring photographers. In a business that is usually dominated by pretty large egos, he is also very unpretentious, humble and very approachable. Reading his blog is highly recommended.
