Nude Model Arrested at Museum

Nudity in art is nothing new, but nowadays it may not be entirely legal. A woman was arrested for stripping naked at New York's Museum of Modern Art in order to pose for photographer Zach Hyman.

Worth How Much?

The final photograph of Michael Jackson may bring over $1 million for National Photo Group, the agency to which it belongs.

The whole staff of National will make money from this photo. Ben Evenstad, one of the co-founders of National, estimates the staff bonuses this year will be "six figures... if not, damn close."

In January this year, the paparazzo who took the photo, Christopher Weiss, had changed from being on commission at National to being on salary.

Great minds...

...really do think alike, it seems.

The lead photo editors from 3 wire services that follow the US President everywhere have selected some of the photos which they think best capture President Bush and his time in office.

One image that all three editors chose independently of each other: Andrew Card informing President Bush that a plane had crashed into the World Trade Center in New York.

The story, with excellent discussion, is here.
