This week we have photos from STRATA, two photo editing controversies, a very angry speed skater, and tips for making your facebook photos better.

  • The retouched Vogue images of Lena Dunham sparked controversy after Jezebel posted the unedited images.
  • Photographer Ami Vitale has a list of funding sources for photographers on her website.
  • Local photographer Timothy Hyde was interviewed by the City Paper this week.
  • Tempers flared at the European speed skating trials, resulting in an image that captures the joy of winning and the agony of defeat.
  • The scene surrounding this award winning image of a dead teenager in Haiti tells a much different story than the photo itself.
  • The Women Photojournalists of Washington are hosting their Third Annual Seminar and Portfolio Review on February 9.
  • The Center for Photography at Woodstock has a call for submissions.
  • Want to hear an International Center for Photography lecture, but can’t make it to New York? No problem, their lectures are available online.
  • The D.C. based STRATA Collective shared images from the MLK Peace Walk.
  • The identity of a young girl in an iconic photo by Lewis Hine was identified, more than 100 years later.
  • Photographer John Schneider shared the story of what happened when an actor stopped acting, and shared rare emotion.
  • Prince of Petworth shared the history of the Pension Building, home of the National Building Museum. The post has some fascinating historic photos of the D.C. landmark.
