Have you signed up for our special Exposed DC sponsored week of free photography classes with Knowledge Commons DC? Most of our classes are waitlisted (you can still sign up and we’ll let you know if a spot opens up) but you can still get a seat to make your own camera obscura next Friday. And be sure to join us for our monthly happy hour — this time with the wonderful KCDC folks — at Iota in Clarendon on Monday, November 17. Find out how you can sign up or get involved with future KCDC sessions, meet the Exposed DC team, or just come have a drink with fellow photography lovers.

  • This is the last weekend for FotoWeek DC, so be sure to check out our recommendations on what to see. We also have a review of the contest winners written by Caroline Space.
  • Want tips on how to be a better photo assistant? APA DC is hosting a Photo Assistant workshop next week.
  • Martin Schoeller discusses a selection of high profile shoots from his new book Portraits, including the story of pro skater Tony Hawk leaping from his kitchen counter at the crack of dawn and Quentin Tarantino apparently blissed out in a sea of doves.
  • New Zealand freelance photographer Amos Chapple used a drone to photograph the Kremlin. What’s Russian for cojones?
  • Photos from “Dark Tourism” sites around the world. That ought to bring you down.
  • Italian “paparazzo” Umberto Pizzi says he photographs to tell stories, not to court celebrities. Alexa Keefe interviewed Pizzi for National Geographic.
  • From geishas and waterfalls to the Berlin Wall and 9/11: How one photographer captured 60 years of historic images. Thomas Hoepker’s photos are collected in a retrospective called Wanderlust.
  • The first Hasselblad in space went on the auction block on Thursday. It fetched $275,000!
  • Speaking of cool space photos, did you see the first ever photo from the surface of a comet?
  • And finally, add being presented with a white tiger to the list of Presidential perks.

This lovely image by Jano Silva combines a touch of old fashioned with a taste of modern. The contrast of the anonymous, fedora hat wearing man, the pop art cake, and the beautiful window light make for a great photo.

The Creepiest Halloween Display by John Leszczynski
The Creepiest Halloween Display by John Leszczynski

We’re counting on you to put some horribly creepy and awesome Halloween images in our pool this weekend, everyone. Put on some comfortable shoes in November, because we’re about to announce a ton of Exposed DC events for you to soak up, including a metro-accessible extended run of our InstantDC Fall Review and a quick-round of free photography classes through Knowledge Commons DC. You’ve also got FotoweekDC kicking off next Friday — we’ll have a preview of recommended events for you early next week.  Now, on to Friday Links!

  • LIFE photographer Michael Rougier shows just how awkward it is when the housekeeper has to step over the lion.
  • The lava flow from Kilauea has almost reached the town on Pahoa on the Big Island of Hawaii, and the photos of the destruction are fascinating.
  • This seems like a good time to look back on the All-Time Favorite Volcano photos from National Geographic.
  • Everyone loves a puppy photo, but Pete Thorne’s portrait series with old dogs is moving.
  • Do you love fall foliage? Do you also love wine? REI has a photo class for you.
  • Mark your calendars, “Photo Trends & Evolution” panel discussion, featuring panelists Jim Darling, Meghan Dhaliwal, Holly Garner, Susana Raab and Matt Rakola, moderated by Roshani Kothari – November 18th at MLK, 6-8 p.m.
  • The first Hasselblad in space is going up for auction on November 13. It is rumored to have taken this infamous space photo.
  • The post may be from last year, but the photos from the Buzzfeed roundup of scary vintage Halloween costumes are still creepy.
  • And finally, a tiger at the Hagenbeck Zoo in Germany was able to enjoy a meat filled pumpkin.
