Rico Mandel: January 2010
http://ricomandel.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 26, 2010. 5 A Day #8 - Italian Local Men. One of the things I love about traveling are the local people. No matter where I am I love to sit and talk to the local people if possible or at least watch them. I know it seems voyeuristic but I like to see what they look like, how they interact, what they eat, if I understand the language, what they are saying. It's the locals that make the trip for me. You can see more of my work on my website - www.ricomandel.com. Afternoon at the Café.

Photonotes: July 2010
http://newphotonotes.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 25, 2010. Anyway, right now I want to record some thoughts I wanted to clear for a long time. It's about documentary and portrait photography. More accurately, two things: how to photograph people in misery without exploiting them and becoming demagogue, and how to make such a photo work. As a starter, here's one I took of charming little Sapuna in Nakho, Northern India. Compassion is the keyword - getting connected with the subject. How to achieve this? I edited this and cloned out a little...

Wednesday, January 19, 2011. SajtóFotó 2010 - Hungarian Press Photo Awards 2010. Sajtófotó, the annual Hungarian Press Photo Awards have always been criticized for being open to all but always won by the same insiders. It was welcomed news to hear that foreign photographers (Jan Sibik, Sam Steward, Filip Horvath from AP and Thomas Szlukovenyi from Reuters were invited this year so that the competition doesn't turn into the usual game called. I give an award to your protegé, you'll give one to mine".

Photonotes: March 2011
http://newphotonotes.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 9, 2011. How to remove banding from a jpg? I haven't got a clue. After trying everything recommended in every PS tutorial and every forum, and still without success, a conversation from the movie "Top Secret" comes to mind. The manager, who was supposed to free an American musician from an East-German prison, visits him in his cell and says with a mournful face:. Nick, I have tried everything. The embassy, the consulate.". Don't worry, there will be a solution.". Wednesday, March 09, 2011.

Photonotes: Opening old perspectives
http://newphotonotes.blogspot.com/2011/01/opening-old-perspectives.html
Wednesday, January 12, 2011. Soon we will all photograph in 3D and merge videos with still shots and images will be no longer saved to memory cards but directly transferred to Facebook from the camera. Or so they say. then, returning to the very basics of visual arts can be quite inspirational in our quest for better photographs. What made this come to my mind is a photo by Zoran Toldi. A dilapidated door as background, bare feet on the threadbare cobblestones. All details match the portrait of a str...

Photonotes: September 2010
http://newphotonotes.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 27, 2010. Monday, September 27, 2010. Links to this post. Sunday, September 26, 2010. Let's build a new site (or die trying) - update. An old friend stumbled upon my post. Written after the meltdown at 1X and asked if there's any news. Maybe it's about time to give an up-date of the situation, just for the record. Bottomline: the project is in its Rubber Duck phase, looking smooth and quiet on the surface but paddling like the devil underneath. Sunday, September 26, 2010. If such a grou...
