NEWSLETTER - JUNE 2005


A new feature of Photographers Direct is that we now send lists of 'failed searches' to our photographers. This means if you cannot find any images for particular keywords by searching our database of 280,000 images, try again a week later and you may well find new images which match! With over 4,000 professional photographers worldwide, we are likely to have someone, somewhere who can help.

Some great new examples of 'impossible to find images' we have found include:
- worried young man using a phone
- Eugenio Espejo oil painting
- contemporary slavery in Brazil

Below is the latest news from some of our photographers:

In July 2005 Graham Harrison will be photographing the religion, culture and monuments of western and central Iran.

Graham has travelled the world on assignments for Vogue and the Telegraph Magazine, had work exhibited and published by the British Museum, and shot an award-winning calendar for Shell UK. In January 2005 he won the Academic Advisory Group's Special Prize for religious photography at the first Art and Worship World Prize, Tehran.

harripix.com was created to promote both Graham's new work and his archive of original transparencies of writers, actors, artists and travel, much of which was shot for the Telegraph Magazine in the 1970s and 80s.
