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 immigration photos, 80 women photographers, Australia waves, Sony Alpha 7 V ergonomics, the Arca-Swiss P0, wide-angle lenses, Fuji X Recipe Generator, long exposure photography and an unhappy bride.
- The Associated Press presents its top Immigration Photos this year.
- The Guardian showcases images from A Legacy of Light, a new exhibit featuring 80 women photographers working between 1900 ad 1975. The show runs until May at the new National Gallery of Victoria.
- Kate Mothes features Kevin Krautgartner's Luminous Western Australia Waves taken from a vertical perspective. "Turquoise water swirls, sprays, rolls and washes over the sand, focused so specifically that the phenomenon appears nearly abstracted," she writes.
- Verge reviewer Antonio G. Di Benedetto isn't impressed by the ergonomic improvements of the new Sony Alpha 7 V. "I own and use Sony cameras all the time, but I'm perpetually blown away by how much nicer it is to hold a Canon or Nikon," he writes.
- Mike Johnston's Arca-Swiss P0 has arrived and he loves it already. "Such a smart, simple, well-made device," he writes.
- Jim Kasson explains Why Wide-Angle Lenses Stretch the Edges of the Frame. "The stretching comes from the scene, not the lens," he writes. "In everyday scenes, surfaces toward the edges are viewed from a more oblique angle and from a different distance than surfaces at the center."
- Alberto Lima reviews the Fuji X Recipe Generator. It's a free app that runs on the desktop, Android or iOS.
- Dahlia Ambrose offers some tips on improving Long Exposure Photography. "When capturing long exposures, you cannot just lengthen the shutter speed but need to take care of the light in the frame, consider the exposure triangle and make adjustments accordingly," she advises.
- A Reddit poster wants to know What to Do When Client Doesn't Like Pics? Helpful advice for the current predicament and how to avoid a repeat in the future.
More to come! Meanwhile, here's a look back. And please support our efforts...
