In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at a feature on AP photographer Nick Ut, Harold Davis reshoots Paris at night, shooting tethered from Lightroom mobile and a timelapse technique for real estate photos.
- Gendy Alimurung writes at length for LA Weekly about Nick Ut whose Napalm Girl helped end the Vietnam war. "He is 63 now," she writes, "agile and white-haired, save for bushy black eyebrows that have a life of their own. He is still a photographer, still for the Associated Press -- only in Los Angeles instead of Saigon."
- Harold Davis reconsiders his camera settings Photographing the Paris Skyline to avoid camera shake in the winds above the city.
- Terry White reveals How To Shoot Tethered to Lightroom Mobile. For extra credit, White used Jeffrey Friedl's Folder Watch Lightroom plug-in (after Friedl added a feature for him).
- Neil van Niekerk flattered a few commercial properties using timelapse clips shot with his Nikon D4. In his blog entry, he details both the gear and his technique with a short demo reel.
