Inside North Korea: its people at work, rest and play – in pictures | Art and design | The Guardian

Stéphan Gladieu was allowed into North Korea to shoot its people in amusement parks, cinemas and offices. Why, he wonders, did they let him?
Mee-Lai Stone

My first thought was, "Doesn't anyone ever relax?" But at least the last photo was a little reassuring.

8 Tips for Shooting Street Portraits of Strangers | PetaPixel

An often overlooked aspect of street photography is creating street portraits. It is a wonderful way to connect with people, to learn about an area, to hear stories, and to create interesting photographs.
When taking a candid shot just doesn’t feel right or comfortable, there’s always a chance to ask for a portrait.
In addition, if you do any type of other portrait or headshot work, it’s a fantastic way to practice. All you have to do is go outside and find some subjects and you will quickly improve your ability to interact with people, your framing, your lighting, and your confidence with the camera.

Australia’s 2021 National Photographic Portrait prize winner and finalists – in pictures | Art and design | The Guardian

Sydney photographer Joel B Pratley’s photo of a lone farmer immersed in a dust storm in drought-stricken Australia has won the 2021 National Photographic Portrait prize. Titled Drought Story, the image shows David Kalisch captured amid a sudden dust storm on his 1,000-acre farm in Forbes, New South Wales. Pratley said his subject’s stance reflects the resilience of a man pushed to the limits by an unforgiving climate: ‘David’s composure during the storm was surreal, because he is just so used to it. For me, it was like being on Mars.’
