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 Afghan women, Guide to Ukraine, technical lenses, the histogram, crop sensors, bad weather and copyrighting old photos.

  • In The Fall of Kabul Through the Eyes of the Women Who Survived It Nadia Hashimi presents images shot by the photographer Mehri Jamshidi in October. "In conversations with Mehri, the women she photographed likened Taliban-controlled Kabul to Barzakh," she writes, referring to "the place where the incapacitated souls of the dead linger, divorced from their physical bodies."
  • In Support Photojournalism: Guide to Ukraine, Heidi Volpe talks to Paul Bellinger Jr. about his Instagram guides for over worked and under paid photojournalists.
  • Dave Chew continues his series on technical cameras with Lenses and Accessories.
  • Julieanne Kost shares her Tips for Working With the Histogram in Lightroom Classic.
  • Thom Hogan asks, Are Crop Sensors Done? Yes and no, he says, pointing to Olympus and Fujifilm as examples. "What you should glean from those two examples is that the advantages of crop sensor are drying up and becoming more singular (as opposed to being multiple)," he writes.
  • Dave Williams provides three reasons why Bad Weather Makes Good Photos. Clouds, snow and rain.
  • Greenberg & Reznicki point out It's Never Too Late to register the copyright of your old photos. It's the first of several pieces on the subject.

More to come! Meanwhile, here's a look back. And please support our efforts...
