Book excerpt: Llangwm, in Pembrokeshire, west Wales, huddles around an inlet of the Cleddau Estuary. Sitting at the end of a minor road with nowhere else to go, it is isolated. This isolation has over many generations engendered a strong sense of communal self-sufficiency. With its church, two chapels, post office, pub, rugby and cricket clubs, school, an annual literary festival, choir, and a host of other societies, it is a very busy village. David Wilson lives and works in Llangwm and since 2019 has been photographing people at home, at work, and at play as well as the landscape and river in the immediate area. This book will offer a snapshot not just of a west Wales village but of a community whose feel is familiar to many.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who is Boswell? Boswell is the pseudonym for an award-winning freelance photographer with engaging and sometimes controversial stories to tell. You’ve likely seen his photos in national and international magazines, books and travel brochures. This ebook will describe how an inspiration during his early years in a tiny rural Midwestern town led to a life spent traveling in 130 countries on all seven continents and how a successful business was built by producing a prolific number of marketable photos as a professional stock and assignment photographer. Filled with entertaining anecdotes and accompanied by 99 photos, Boswell’s journey takes readers inside some of the most colorful aspects of editorial and corporate photography: Landing and executing magazine assignments, gaining “special access required” entrée to exclusive corridors of privilege, “seeking serendipity” in the world’s streets, and cruising the world’s seas and oceans -- as well as uncovering some dark sides of the industry. Just a few stories include: Waiting for Mandela, chasing Doctor Death, repatriating skyjackers from Cuba, attending Zimbabwe’s first session of parliament, surviving the Drake Passage, standing on stage with the Lord of the Dance, roving the pits with famous race drivers, hanging with a Piston Bad Boy, chumming with Sparky in the Tigers locker room, and being interviewed by oral historian Studs Turkel while taking his portrait. One of the first Americans to visit Mao’s China during the Cultural Revolution, Boswell returned over fifty times to produce books on China, including a very large one stolen by the French. Several chapters of his unlikely story are devoted to travels in China, how specializing in that country proved a key to his photographic success, and why he fell in love in a rice paddy.

Download or read book Taxi written by Joseph Rodriguez and published by powerHouse Books. This book was released on 2020-12-22 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York City in the late '70s was a collection of villages with its downtown scene, midtown workers, and uptown elegance. It was also a city that was more integrated than ever before or ever would be again. All of the city's humanity met in its streets with layered soundtracks of salsa, rock, disco, reggae, and soon hip-hop booming for all to groove to. But, NYC was also a place of chaos and mayhem. Teetering on the brink of bankruptcy with rampant crime it was the city's drug users, dealers, and pimps and prostitutes who ruled the streets of Manhattan. The grittiness of the city was a beacon and a promise to many outsiders, those who didn't quite fit into any mold, and a vibrant LGBTQ community became the nexus of an underworld of sex workers who liked to party. For a NYC cabbie such as Joseph Rodriguez, the hot spots to pick up fares were clubs like the Hellfire, Mineshaft, The Anvil, The Vault, and Show World. Losing his first camera and lens in a classic '70s New York stabbing and mugging, Rodriguez's wounds healed and he armed himself with a new camera to document what he saw on the job: hookers getting off their shifts, transvestites and S&M partiers doin' it in the back seat or somehow pulling off an unlikely costume change from bondage gear to emerge from the cab clean-cut in an oxford and khakis ready to face unwitting family and friends. A humanist at heart, his photographs speak of the dignity of the city's working class from all the boroughs and those struggling to get by. The Economic Hardship Reporting Project provided funding to support Taxi: Journey Through My Windows 1977–1987.
