These are great blogs from Magnum's photographers: the first is Alec Soth's blog. I think it's really great since he often shows other photographers' work thus we all can learn a lot on why good photography is good. HIs post are usually long and very detailed.
Here you can find Alec Soth's Magnum page.
More and more photographers are now trying new forms to show their work. Here is a quick video (sorry for the quality) I have recorded at the first VII Photo European Seminar, which took place in London on april 2007.
It 's a video by one of my favourite photographers, Joachim Ladefoged (sorry, VII website doesn't display the complete url!!). From the website "In 1987, at the age of 16, Joachim’s dream of becoming a soccer player was shattered when he was almost crippled by rheumatism. A year later he got his first camera, with the hope that photography could bring him closer to the activities his illness prevented him from.

His work is amazing, his pictures astonishing.
Sempre più fotografi anche tra i professionisti stanno sperimentando nuove forme con cui esibire il proprio lavoro. Qui sotto c è un breve video (la qualità è pessima lo so) che ho registrato al primo seminario europeo dell' agenzia VII, avvenuto a Londra nell' aprile del 2007.
E' un video di uno dei miei fotografi preferiti, Joachim Ladefoged (spiacenente ma il sito della VII non da l' url completo)
This is a brief series of photos I shot a while ago here in milan about cheap hotels. All the pictures have been shot in one night, except for the second from the top.
Questa è una breve serie di foto che ho scattato qualche tempo fa sugli hotel a basso costo di Milano.Tutte le fotografie sono state scattate in una sera, eccetto la seconda foto dall' alto.
The guys at Zooomr are doing a real good job these days. The indipendent company (read a great post by Robert Scoble ) just won a WebWare . The winners of "WebWare Awards", which "recognizes the best Web 2.0 sites, services, and applications that are leading the next wave of innovation" are first selected by a panel of editors, and then by Web's users.This year there were a stunning 5,000 nominations, a number which highlight the Web 2.0 frenzy...
Another news from Zooomr, announced yesterday: you can now add YouTube and Vimeo videos on your photo pages.
I think more and more people will like this young, quick, innovative company (remember all the services are free...). Here is a little video about...their sticking attitude.
Allora, oggi si inizia ufficialmente questo blog (o forse meglio photoblog), a proposito di ciò che amo maggiormente: il web, la fotografia, e la mia città, Milano nonchè tutto quello che mi viene in mente e voglio condividere con voi.
Spero vi piaccia..
So guys, here we are... We do hope to enjoy a great trip into ...well what I am most passionate about:web, photography, and my city Milan...and whatever comes in my mind and i want to share with you.
