Dear Reader,
December is make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising. We have a $350,000 goal that we simply cannot afford to miss. And in "No Cute Headlines or Manipulative BS," we explain, as matter-of-fact as we can, how being a nonprofit means everything to us. Bottom line: Donations big and small make up 74 percent of our budget this year and are urgently needed this month, and all online gifts will be matched and go twice as far until we hit our goal. Please pitch in if you can right now.
December is make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising, and in "No Cute Headlines or Manipulative BS," we hope that giving it to you as matter-of-fact as we can will work to raise the $350,000 we need to raise this month. Donations make up 74 percent of our budget this year, and all online gifts will be matched and go twice as far until we hit our goal.
Usually I use a long telephoto lens when I’m shooting pictures at a zoo. The obvious reason for this is to get a nice, tight shot of the subject, but it’s also to blur out the fencing that encloses the animals. Sometimes, though, that’s just not in the cards, as in this picture of a baby lemur hanging on the fence and practically begging to come out and play. So adorable.
Award-winning photojournalism.
Stunning video. Fearless conversations.
