Perspective

[toosuto]

Photographer Duncan McNicholl has a nice essay about responsible photography and social justice. His current photo project is dual photographs of individuals in Malawi consist of a standard NGO image with all the signifiers of poverty and another that the subject feels is a more accurate portrayal of them at their best. We are rarely shown his alternative to the standard photographs of the poor and struggling in third world counties but I think they are the more important images to promote.
