The website Photography at About.com has an excellent article about photographing public events and demonstrations, something that I am personally interested in.

“Over the years I’ve photographed many such political marches, demonstrations and events in London, a few of which have had their violent and scaring moments. Occasionally I’ve been covering events for a particular client; but mainly I’ve been interested in making a historical record - these are things that I think are important and should be documented. The people who get out on the streets - for whatever cause - are people who are actively trying to influence the course of events.”
