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 Minidoka, Del Cielo, Michella Bredahl, Brian Kelly, four new Lightroom videos, a 100-400mm lens and Vision Pro.
- Lindsey Wasson and Ed Komenda visit the Minidoka National Historic Site with the Minidoka Pilgrimage, a group of survivors, descendants and allies who return to the World War II incarceration camp annually to connect, share stories and reclaim their own narrative in the place they were imprisoned.
- Sophie Wright reviews Del Cielo, a group exhibition exploring images of birds in work by Jo Ann Callis, Masahisa Fukase, James Gallagher, Graciela Iturbide, Rinko Kawauchi and James Gallagher.
- Mee-Lai Stone features Danish photographer Michella Bredahl's intimate portraits of those closest to her. The images are selected Bredahl's new photo book Love Me Again.
- Heidi Volpe interviews Brian Kelly about his shot for the Patagonia Fall 23 Journal Cover. To get the shot, he had to camp at 11,000 feet in -4 degree weather. And leave his gear outside overnight to avoid condensation.
- Julieanne Kost presents four new Lightroom videos covering The Light Panel, Color Grading, Presets, and Adjustive Editing.
- Jason Row explains why he loves Shooting With 100-400mm Lenses. "They are extremely useful not only in the obvious genres of wildlife and sports but also in landscapes, urban photography and even candid street, although they are not what you might call discrete," he writes.
- In Vision Pro, Spatial Video, and Panoramic Photos, John Guber reports on the Photos app experience in VisionOS. Looking at stills is "like having a 20-foot display with retina quality resolution and the best brightness and clarity of any display you've ever used." And panoramic photos show "no optical distortion at all, no fish-eye look. It just looks like you're standing at the place where the panoramic photo was taken -- and the wider the panoramic view at capture, the more compelling the playback experience is."
More to come! Meanwhile, here's a look back. And please support our efforts...
