To my fan out there in internet land, this blog MAY slow down a little in the next few weeks due to the fact that in a little over 24 hours, a few blokes will race push bikes around France. One of the few disadvantages of living at GPS coordinates -34.9,150.7 is that the Tour de France is on late at night here. Usually starting transmission at 10PM and winding up at about 2am. Sadly, this coincides with the times I do most of my posting to the blog. So, if you find things a little slow, why not have a look at the Tour. Even better, check out the fantastic photos at The Boston Globes site, The Big Picture. One set here, and another here.

Those whacky bunch over at Photojojo have done it again. It kills me to see some of these beautiful old cameras being used for pot plants, but I suppose, if they are stuffed, you may as well.

Why?

This just in from Olympus.

This is the PEN Story in stop motion. We shot 50.000 pictures, developed 8.000 prints and shot over 1.800 pictures again. No post production! Thanks to all the stop motion artists who inspired us. …

Wow! That is very cool.

Thanks to www.photonewstoday.com, big news for the UWA lens nerds today. If you have a cropped frame (Thanks Jason Stone)  camera, the newest Sigma 10-20 is on its way. f/3.5 across the range, it seems to be a step up from the old 10-20.
