Bruce Dale - 30 Years of BAD Pictures

Bruce Dale has been a professional photographer for 30 years and during that time a prolific shooter for National Geographic magazine. He estimates the magazine has published over 2000 of his images during that time.

There is a short video he produced showcasing some of those images during which he talks about his work. It's called 30 years of bad pictures because as Bruce describes it; tradition at the Geographic was to stamp your initials on each box of images and his initials were "BAD". He caught someone throwing out his images one day while remarking that the images weren't "that bad".

Check out this video it's a great retrospective of his time at the Geographic.
