Wearing one of these press badges can either stop you from being shot or be the reason you were shot.
Wearing them depends where in the world you work, who is fighting who or even if the protesters are media friendly or not
Tuff call some times!
The 3D Press Badges are made by Hazard 4 and the one at the rear is glow in the dark. They have sewn Velcro (hook) back to attach to clothing or bags (2nd photo)

I've added all photographers from my various circles into one circle.
Please feel free to share as you wish.
Over the next while, I will be sharing my favorite images from each of you - in groups of 10.
Thank you for your participation in these circles - without you they would be meaningless.

Top 500 most followed photographers
►►►►►►►═════════════════════◄◄◄◄◄◄◄
Once again it's time to share my circle of the top 500 most followed photographers. I'm sharing the circle here but I posted the the full list as a series of posts on +Most Followed Photographers on G+.
Photographers with an " * " in front of their name are not included in the numbered count because they only share outside content, their content is content suitable to a blog and usually has no images associated with it, or they have become mostly or completely inactive on G+.
This list was complied from two previous lists and a line-by-line search of CircleCount. If you know of someone that should have been on the list and isn't, the most likely cause is that their +CircleCount profile doesn't i... more »

EDITOR'S PIC OF THE DAY
13 Nov 2006, Balad, Iraq - US military personnel help to load injured soldiers onto a cargo plane en route to Germany from the Balad Air Force base. The interior lights of the plane are red because of an "alarm red" attack, which indicates that the base is under attack, usually by incoming mortar rounds.

Perhaps its more of a cultural thing that we have to categorize different genres of photography and lay down rules to make people conform and control them…

My general photography circle has been updated: this will be the last share of this circle. Thank you to all who have expressed interest in being here.
There will be a new event coming in the next few days: after that I'll be changing the way I work with my circles and will be sharing a few smaller circles of some of my favorite images.

Eldon Hill Quarry, Derbyshire
The hill's name comes from the Old English language and means Elves Hill, as many years ago people believed that elves lived in the many potholes and caves on the hill. In 1285 the hill was called Elvedon, which sounds very Lord of the Rings.

Is Your 'Other' Photo Site Creating Orphan Files of Your Work?
So check this out again and see how everyone stands up as far as preserving embedded metadata is concerned. Flickr is a surprise, at least to me. I should take ours down.

And the reason you should be concerned is here, in case some have not seen it.

PHOTOGRAPHERS MUST READ THIS
#EERB #STOPTEERB
I am appalled and horrified that this has been passed by the U.K. It affect the whole World. People like myself, +Trey Ratcliff & +Thomas Hawk who HATE watermarks will have to really think hard about adding them now.
I have always ensured that the IPTC is set in my images, but I have noted that it has been stripped when images have appeared elsewhere.. which makes it useless against this
I don't know what we can do to stop this....
Share this & get the word out!

Facebook has lost millions of users per month in its biggest markets - 6m US visitors and in the UK 1.4m fewer users checked in last month.
The declines are sustained. In the last six months, Facebook has lost nearly 9m monthly visitors in the US and 2m in the UK. Users are also switching off in Canada, Spain, France, Germany and Japan, where Facebook has some of its biggest followings

For creatives this is a disaster and according to the article Google are partly to blame.
So it looks like from now on photographers will have little choice but to watermark their photos and works using Creative Commons may also be affected and swept up as for sale by some sort of licensing agency, yet to be created
