If you’re a fan of the Olympics and good photography, check out this public list on Twitter that’s pulling all the posts from some of the many photojournalists covering the games.
Obviously it’s not everyone, but the list is growing daily, thanks to diligent work by its creator, my amiga Melissa Lyttle at the Tampa Bay Times.
It’s a good place to start browsing images by photographers, with links back to their respective news outlets (lots of great slideshows!), personal blogs, and of course, Instagram feeds.
With regard to the latter, definitely check out that of this blog post’s lead image, Brian Cassella. I’ve been following his work for a while now, back when he too worked with Lyttle at the Times. He’s at the Chicago Tribune now, and is at Sochi shooting for that publication and the McClatchy-Tribune wire service. He’s definitely worth following on Instagram — see that here.
Anyway, cheers,
