  • Check out Smashing Magazines 60 Beautiful Examples of Night Photography.  If that compilation doesn't make you want to experiment with night-photography, then perhaps night shooting isn't for you. #
  • Charlie Sorrel at the Wired Gadget Lab, wrote an article today about the Olympus EP-1 which, I'll admit, has been getting lots of coverage lately.  In one simple article, he explains all of the solutions the EP-1 has for the typical compact camera.  My interests are quite piqued.  If anyone has connections to loan me one for review, I'll figure out a way to compensate.  The EP-1 may end up on my wishlist.  Check out Sorrel's Article:  Olympus EP-1 Pen Gaining Fans Daily #
  • Many of you have heard me rave about Tom Kirsh's work many times in the past.  For those not familiar, he photographs dilapidated old vacant buildings, and his work is incredibly inspirational.  Check out his latest work in his photographic pictorial of Erich Wagner Kindersanitorium (PS - Kirsh often hides the real names of these locations). #
  • Digital Photography School has a review of the book, Printing for Digital Photographers, by Tim Daly.  Barrie Smith, who reviewed the book, has some good things to say about the book.  It is certainly a topic that will affect many of us - if not now, soon in the future.  This may be a book to add to your shopping list. #
  • Don't forget to submit your photos for the Fill the Frame assignment.  Submit your photos to the Shutter Photo @ Flickr group.  We'll post your shots early in the week. #
