Big ducks, little ponds

The author, referring to an article by Andy Grundberg ""A New
Path for Photojournalism'', distinguishes two worlds in which
photojournalists can operate describing these as: big ponds (the
world of real events) in which photojournalists can be regarded
as little anonymys ducks contrary to the little ponds (the
unreal world of museum and art events- where 'photojournalists'
can act as big ducks. The author states that the power of
photojournalism rests in the anonymity of images, and that the
""putting of photojournalism on the walls of museums or in
books'' is to emasculate photojournalism. (German/English)
