Weekend Assignment: Design Your Own Blog Award

Fresh when it gets here from Julie Barrett
Saturday, August 9, 2008

Design your own blog award, recognizing one particular virtue found in some blogs (e.g. political savvy, humor, an engaging prose style, a particular kind of photography, etc.). Award it to one - and only one - blog, and explain your choice!

I'm going to cop out just a bit. I'm not up to actually designing an award, but I'll tell you what the award is for, and who I'd award it to. I hope that would do.

My award would be for standing up for photographer's rights.

The winner is the War on Photography blog, which highlights incidents in which photographers were harassed for shooting in public places.

The extra credit was to suggest a runner-up. I chose Thomas Hawk, partly because he's on the brain today after having blogged about getting kicked out of the SF MoMA for taking photographs in an area where photography is allowed. I'm going to blog more about this incident in another post.

There ya go!
