Yosemite HD

Incredible time lapse project Yosemite HD by Sheldon Neill and Colin Delehanty showcases the wonder of the sights/sites at Yosemite National Park. Wish we could to the way-out-there more often.

Lytro Camera

Man, I wish the Lytro wasn’t so expensive ($500+). Because it is an amazing little piece of technology that could change photography forever. The camera captures an image that can be re-focused at any time. Pretty sick. I couldn’t figure out how to get the photo widgets into here, so check out the Lytro Gallery to see some examples of how it works.

Big Picture – Nikon Small World

Crazy photographs from Nikon Small World Competition at the Big Picture. This is a composite of a fruit fly’s nervous system, straight out of the 80′s.

The Mixed Race Project




Jenna of Sweet Fine Day recently launched a new project called The Mixed Race Project, where she photographed three different mixed race families in their homes (we’re one of them!). Rather than focusing on the traditional visual documentation of the face, Jenna focused on our homes – on how we live and eat and bring our different cultures into our home lives.

It’s totally crazy to think that interracial marriages were illegal in the United States until 1967. I think it’s great to be able to talk about race openly and honestly, and we were so pleased to be a part of The Mixed Race Project. I look forward to seeing more families as Jenna adds them to the site.

WW2 photo

We visited the National WW2 Museum this afternoon and in the display for wartime production, I was mesmerized by this 1942 photo of female workers working on A-20J bombers at Douglas Aircraft’s factory in Long Beach, CA.

Space Station Flyover of Earth

Amazing movie composed of stills from the ISS.
