week 4 forum

TOPIC 1: NPPA CODE OF ETHICS -- Look at the National Press Photographers Association Code of Ethics posted on Moodle.


  1. Which item in the "Code of Ethics” section do you find most compelling? EXPLAIN WHY that stands out.
  2. Next, look at the list under "Ideally, photojournalists should ...” Again, pick the item that most stands out for you and EXPLAIN WHY you think it matters.
  3. Write about an EXAMPLE that illustrates one of the principles you highlighted from the NPPA Code of Ethics. In other words, how would you apply the rule?


TOPIC 2: FAVORITE PHOTOS -- As we approach the midpoint of the term, let's do a shoutout for some of your fellow students' work.


Go through the class blog and pick out TWO PHOTOS by TWO DIFFERENT STUDENTS other than yourself that you appreciate. 
1.)Taryn's Photo of a dirt bike doing a wheelie across a sand dune is outstanding. she did a great job a capturing her subject in action. angle is good as well. Tayrns Pic
2.) Sara Melchers shot of the roller durby is a great shot. the shot shows great emotion in the moment. Sara's pic 


Then tell why you like the photo (e.g. great subject, angle, use of light, details in the caption). Be sure to include LINKS to your favorite photos! If you like, POST A COPY of the photos, too.


NOTE: If somebody already has written about a certain photo, please pick another. Thanks.


TOPIC 3: FAVORITE LYNSEY ADDARIO MOMENT: Describe your favorite part of the book so far, identifying the page numbers of the passage; include a quote; why did this particular story stand out to you; what have you learned about photojournalism from Lynsey Addario?

on page 186 I love lynsey addario quote" Every i would push myself to do something i didnt want to do...The philosophy extended to work; I allowed myself to enjoy life only if i worked hard, if i tested my limits, if i created a lasting body of work." I really appreiate her outlook or approach to life and work. I personally try to push myself to my limits and i think thats important because it helps us find out who we really are.
