Our goal is to develop and present a new kind of interactive photojournalism, utilizing the newest in digital and communications technologies and some of the best photographic and journalistic talent around. Antonin Kratochvil, Miguel Luis Fairbanks, Ed Kashi, Bobby Neel Adams, Darcy Padilla, Stella Johnson, Gary Matoso, and Ann Summa are just a few of the names you'll be seeing here at FocalPoint f/8 in the months ahead.

In these pages, we at FocalPoint f/8 hope to present to you stories which will move you, and allow you, our friends and site users, to communicate and dialogue directly with the photographers, journalists, and subjects of those stories. We began that process with the Mailbox in The Russian Chronicles, and our live WebChat sessions, and will be continuing that in the months ahead, with more on-location stories, and with an on-line forum and discussion series bringing well-known names in photo/journalism and other photo professionals on-line for live WebChat
