Dana Ullman, a Brooklyn-based photographer, has in recent years traveled back-and-forth to California; to Los Angeles’ Skid Row, to San Francisco’s Tenderloin, and to the San Joaquin Valley.
The series’ title Another Kind Of Prison references the fact that many hardships of prison continue post-release and, furthermore, new challenges emerge. Ullman followed several women as they left prison and readjusted to life on the outside. For Ullman, the choice to go to California was logical. “California is home to the world’s two largest women prisons and has an annual corrections budget of 10 billion dollars, the highest in the country, yet has limited reentry programs,” she says. “In California, there are about 12,000 women on parole. Over the past 15 years, the number of incarcerated women in prison increased by 203%, as compared to 77% for men.
Ullman is also keen to emphasize the common factors particular to female prisoners. “62% of women in prison have children under 18.

By Daily Mail Reporter Published: 19:13 GMT, 6 September 2012 | Updated: 07:30 GMT, 7 September 2012 Henri Cartier-Bresson's photographs are of some of the most epic events of the last century, beautifully printed in black-and-white.
The vast majority of those gelatin silver prints were made by one man between 1967 and 1997. He was Voja Mitrovic, a master printer at Paris' celebrated Picto photo lab. Over the years, Cartier-Bresson presented Mitrovic with 28 signed and inscribed prints, some rarely seen by the public — until now.

1.3 is a Very Welcomed Update to Photoshop Touch. There was a lot of hostility towards the original release of Photoshop Touch and I feel this is the version they should have started with.
Originally the app suffered from low resolution support (1600px) and with version 1.3 it now supports images up to 12mp, Apple’s iPad supports images up to 18mp in most cases so there is still room to grow. I couldn’t imagine spending a lot of time on a special project and then having it restricted to such a small size. Along with the update there are quite a few new features which users have been looking forward to like a gesture to toggle to 100% view, a three-finger tap to fit the image to the screen and a new pixel nudging mode for precision edits.
Photoshop Touch 1.3 adds the above features as well as Retina support for the new iPad. Best Client Brief Ever. Vida Loca. J e z b l o g. Once Upon a Time in Karachi - An FP Slide Show. With 18 murders and violent deaths in just the past few days, Karachi is living up to its reputation for being one of the world's most dangerous cities -- a teeming den of ethnic violence and decades-long bloody political feuds.
With more than 13 million people living in this South Asian metropolis, the nerve center of Pakistan's culture and commerce, life today often means squeaking out an existence amid an urban chaos, punctuated by roadside bombs, bus explosions, and shootings by militants affiliated with the Taliban and al Qaeda. Last summer, in July alone, some 300 people were gunned down across the city in a spate of targeted killings. But the Karachi of the 1960s and 1970s was a much different place. The city became a stop on the "Hippie Trail," a popular route that led bohemians from Britain and the United States across Asia on their search for enlightenment.
