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. This time we look at Jupiter, finding a lens adapter, beauty, Simon Edelman and the net neutrality battle.
- Alan Taylor presents 24 Gorgeous Images of the Planet Jupiter, courtesy of NASA's Juno mission. There's a link to a story about the image editing involved as well.
- Derrick Story explains How to Find the Right Lens Adapter for Your Mirrorless Camera. We have Nikon F to Micro Four Thirds adapter we've used on our Olympus to take advantage of our Nikkor collection and our Lensbabies with F mounts. Wouldn't be without it.
- Harold Davis muses On Beauty and Art. "In the past couple of centuries, since the end of representational art as the ultimate goal of the artist, the role of beauty in art has become increasingly vexatious," he begins.
- In He Leaked a Photo of Rick Perry, Ben Protess reports on Simon Edelman's whistler-blower suit.
- In 21 States Sue to Keep Net Neutrality, David Shepardson updates the battle to prohibit Internet service providers from implementing "paid prioritization."
Just a note to say we are more and more often intentionally truncating full headlines here because we find them to be more like paragraphs than headlines. We won't compromise clarity for conciseness, we promise.
More to come! Meanwhile, please support our efforts...
