Movin’ Like Crazy
Moving in circles?
That’s me, (not in the picture, in life) movin’ like crazy. I have a lot going on over the next few weeks. Not the best pan shot ever taken. But I thought it was fun, and I like the pastel colors. Taken in Hardiwar, India.
In other news, be looking for the unavailing of two key websites if you are a humanitarian photographer or even have a bent towards it. The first is the International Guild of Visual Peacemakers. This is the website that will be creating a community for people like us. Meaning, humanitarian photographer that feel the world can be a better place if we start taking photos of the good in culture and stop stereotyping everyone. Then the other is a sister site, in a way. Focus for Humanity is a grant foundation that is set up to help humanitarian photographers make it. They will be handing out grants, (read money here), as well as other awards. I am really please to be associated with both of these organizations. Be sure to check them out as soon as they announce on twitter @IGVP, or send a notification request to info@visualpeacemakers.org.
visualpeacemakers.org SITE UPDATE. We are testing this week. We will announce the launch date via @IGVP on twitter. You can request to be notified by emailing us at info@visualpeacemakers.org.

You're too modest. That's an absolutely smashing shot!
Can' t say how much I am thrilled to read about @IGVP and @focus4humanity !!! I just subscribed for the latter and can't wait to do so on IGVP. It's just what I was looking for for so long. Congrats to all of those behind those fabulous creations. And finally thanks for the great content of your blog Matt. BTW, I just tried soundslides and it looks terrific as a simple and effective slide-show tool.
