Elke Vogelsang based in Germany began photographing as a way to tackle some hard emotional challenges presented by a series of personal family life events. The camera, the pictures, the animals, became a mental refuge. Published in The Sunday Times, National Geographic and Taschen she has earned the title of Europe's top pet photographer. Look into the eyes of her subjects and you’ll see a dog or cat, not just looking back, but talking to you. But initially, self doubt, held her back.

In 2018, Pulitzer prize winner Cathal McNaughton showed a shocked world the true horrors of the Rohingya refugee crisis and in doing so earned a Pulitzer Prize.

Photojournalist Edmond Terakopian joins us for the first of a three parter on the truth and telling photographic stories. Today though is about censorship in a country or indeed in countries, where we felt we had absolute freedom to tell nothing but the whole truth. It’s a pull no punches episode where one of the UK’s most respected photojournalists makes his feelings abundantly clear on how one of the most important stories in a generation is not being told and who he feels is to blame.

The second part today of my chat with Ian Treherne, the 'Blind Photographer,' as is exclaimed publicly and proudly on the front page of his own website. We talk a little more in-depth about his approach to photography, how a breakdown led to becoming a photographer, and how his difference inspired a style and influenced a decision to work with Sense, connecting those who are also deafblind.
