These stunning photographs of Hong Kong in the 1950s are captured beautifully by a teenager. Ho Fan who arrived from Shanghai in 1949. The streets, filled with vendors, coolies and rickshaw drivers, fascinated Ho. Taking pictures in a studio was the norm then, but the Ho was more interested in r

A very good friend of mine created this app. If you use Lightroom a lot, you should consider trying/using it. But don't just take my word for it.

We first wrote about this at WPPI, and happy to say that the finished product is ready to drop. It's rather brilliant and early birds gets 40% off

One of the better explanations of Nikon's various autofocus modes and autofocus-area modes that I've come across. Most of this stuff I've figured out on my own through lots of experimenting with my D90 and through sitting down and re-compiling various scattered sections of its manual, but this guy has made some really neat animations that make it very clear what's going on.
