Magnum/Ideas Tap Breif

Magnum and Ideas Tap have joined together to create a competition to win an 8 week internship at Magnum, NY

I have shot the following images in response to the 'Photojournalism' category.
Accompanied is my short essay (100 limit)

I anticipate that life after the 2012 Games will initially be culturally richer but the games will soon be forgotten. I think this will be the same with the structures that have been built. Our culture does not encourage community events or the use of public amenities. Montreal’s Olympic Stadium and village is around a 12 minute drive from the centre and is a dynamic, well used area. Then theres Barcelona, they’re Olympic Stadium, also a 12 minutre drive from the centre, from the 1992 Olympics lies desolate. I believe, ultimately, we will be Barcelona.


I should note that this brief closed some time ago and I have only just noticed I never published this post.
