Call For Photos and Art

Freedom House is accepting submissions for its second annual photo and art contest, Images of Repression and Freedom. We invite professional and amateur photographers and artists to submit photos and other forms of art (i.e. cartoons, prints, paintings, graphic art) that reflect the themes of freedom, political participation, human rights, and repression.

Semifinalists chosen by Freedom House will be displayed and auctioned as a fundraiser in spring 2013 in Washington, DC. The top three winners will be featured on the Freedom House website, Facebook and Twitter pages, in our newsletter, and will receive a cash prize:

$300 for First Place
$200 for Second Place
$100 for Third Place

Works from any country or region of the world will be considered, but preference will be given to works from countries where freedom is under threat.

To enter, email your entry form and photo to freedomphotos2013@gmail.com by Friday, March 8, 2013.

Cambodian spider hunters

Via The Daily Mail: Meet the spider-hunting five-year-olds who munch on tarantulas in the Cambodian jungle

Unlike the celebrities on the ITV show who struggle to eat creepy crawlies in the jungle, life for these young children in Cambodia sees them enjoy hunting deadly tarantulas and eating them.
They grab the spiders between their tiny fingers, put them in a water bottle, then drown and clean them before they are cooked in hot butter or oil.

Cambodia's capital city Phnom Penh: Time-lapse photography by Tyta Buth

⋅ Leave a Comment

Time-lapse photography is a technique whereby the frequency at which film frames are captured (the frame rate) is much lower than that used to view the sequence. When played at normal speed, time appears to be moving faster and thus lapsing.

Cambodia: open but undeveloped

⋅ Leave a Comment

With The New York Time’s Ondine Cohane who frequently travels Cambodia, you can expect this interesting piece about “a seaside village about halfway along Cambodia’s coast, the crab market was heaving.” For those who have been searching for Cambodia’s sweet spot, read this.

This three-page travel story is accompanied by more than 20 photographs shown in slide here: Open but Undeveloped.
Highlighted:
At a small gas station in Kep, petrol is sold out of old Pepsi bottles.
The top of Bokor Mountain is a popular tourist destination.
Bars and restaurants in Sihanoukville.
Tiny restaurants on Koh Rong Island offer cheap food and beer overlooking the Gulf of Thailand.
