 A hearty thanks and farewell to our guest bloggers, Andrew Hetherington (www.whatsthe jackanory.com ) and Michael David Murphy (2point8.whileseated.org ) for their insightful and enthralling posts from the New York Festival over the past four days. We look forward to working together on similar projects in the future. In the meantime we encourage our readers to keep an eye on their sites for more insider photography news, exposés, and opinion.
A huge thanks also to the Foto8 staff who were on the ground in New York coordinating and generating coverage: Leo, Lally and Grace. I look forward to seeing more of the same again on Foto8.com throughout the year as we report from a wide mix of photography festivals from around the world, always with our eye on photojournalism and making sure we keep it real.
Next up Photo España from Madrid from 3rd June! Are you going? Get in touch with us and share your own reports via Foto8!

* If you're a photographer and you think you're pretty smart and have a
lot to say, you probably missed Simon Norfolk's lecture. His staggering
presentation was the kind of thing that didn't just suck the wind from
your sails, it took down the rigging, dismantled the boat, handed you a
life preserver, and said, "good luck." .
