RIP Salgado - ‘Most of the wealth that flashes round the world from VDU to VDU via electronic impulses still has its roots in blood, sweat and tears. Salgado shows us every bead and drop.’ Boyd Tonkin reviews Salgado’s Workers, British Journal of Photography, December 1994.

Went on a trip to Westfields on Monday to see Portrait of Britain displays and Philip’s was the first image I saw!

So proud that our @PhilipCoburn1's beautiful portrait of Divine for our #Yr9No10 project has been shortlisted for Portrait of Britain. This week saw the 15th anniversary of the IED blast in Afghanistan Phil thankfully survived. Our colleague Rupert Hamer, lost that day, would be proud too.

This is Dawn, a dedicated volunteer at the Albrighton Community Fridge that provides food to families and supports over 200 households a week Her portrait, made by Sukhy Hullait, has won the Portrait of Britain award 🎉 This award recognition honours the image and the powerful stories behind it 1/2

I am delighted to say my portrait of Olympian Heather Fisher, has been selected as a winner @1854.photography Portrait of Britain. It will appear with other winning images across the country on JCDecaux digital screens in January. If you see it, it would be amazing if you can get a photo.

Super excited to see winners of Portrait of Britain go live on JCDecaux screens all over the U.K. A nice sight greeted me in Westfield Stratford this morning…

This guy’s work is beyond words www.1854.photography/2024/11/pale...
