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 Paul Cupido, Tom Sandberg, Tuscany, a stranded boat, the lens addiction, gear destruction, the Pixel 7 Pro Zoom and a script to merge keywords.
- In A Symphony of Images, Sophie Wright present Dutch photographer Paul Cupido's black-and-white images "as a deeply personal, emotive language to explore the infinite possibilities of our natural surroundings."
- In Enigmas in Plain Sight, Pico Iyer celebrates the vision of Norwegian photographer Tom Sandberg, who studied with Minor White.
- In Timeless Tuscany, Scott Kelby shares some of his favorite images from a recent trip to Italy. "I had such a great week, such a great experience, I had great meals and lots of laughs, made some new friends and loved every minute of it," he writes.
- In Stranded Boat Offers So Many Photographic Opportunities, Kevin Raber writes, "Many photographers would pass this opportunity up but it was a great exercise to discover new compositions and images."
- Thom Hogan discusses The Lens Addiction. "What usually starts the lens buying addiction is one of two things: (1) attempting to duplicate the work of others; or (2) attempting to distinguish your work from others," he writes.
- Zach Sutton shows How to Quickly Ruin Your Camera and Lens in case you need an excuse (other than Hogan's) to go shopping.
- A Reddit poster did An Analysis on the Pixel 7 Pro Zoom Processing and includes a link to an album of example images.
- Matthew Bender wanted a way to Merge Keywords into "a structured hierarchal keyword list for stock photography purposes" for Photo Mechanic. One contributor came up with this AppleScript to do the job.
