Coincidence I was just about to post a recomendation on this exhibition... I went there yesterday and it's pretty good!

Another worth seeing it's the World Press Photo Awards at the Southbank, one of the most shocking of all Press awards exhibitions I've seen in the past few years...

It was also strange to see an image selected for two exhibitions on the same day...Jodi Bieber's image of Aisha, who had ears and nose cut off by the Taliban is featured in both Taylor Wessing Prize and World Press exhibitions.

Gorgeous.

And I'm also, always, impressed when anyone uses an RZ67. Those things are SO HEAVY! I wanted one for the longest time - until I rented one and tried to use it!
