High-profile
what?
Quote:
An ethics debate has erupted within the international photography community in regard to photos shot during a high-profile swarm of Rochester’s low-income areas by the world-renowned Magnum Photo agency.
Paolo Pellegrin, one of the photographers here last spring, has placed second in two international contests and won Pictures of the Year International’s Photo of the Year in the freelance/agency category for a picture captioned “A former US Marine Corps sniper with his weapon.”
The picture was in a series he titled “Crescent, Rochester, USA 2012.”
Yet the photo is of Shane Keller, then a Rochester Institute of Technology student, in his Brighton garage miles from the crescent. Keller was a Marine who served in Iraq, but as a combat photographer, not a sniper.
