Time and Google have teamed up to make a huge archive of historical photos available online. Great body of work, worth perusing when you need inspiration of just want to look at great and timeless photos.

I met Jerry Ghionis at the 2008 PhotoPlus Expo/conference‚ in New york and he has what I think is a great teaching tool. They are sets of cards called Picpockets and they are the same size as playing cards but they contain photos or photos with notes written on them. They come in a sturdy pack and can be taken on location and used for inspiration. The ‘Ordinary to Extraordinary’ series is nice because it shows you the simple backgrounds plus the fairly simple lighting and Exif data that were used to create the many striking photographs that make up the set. Each set of cards currently sells for about 80 dollars and contains about 50 cards. In the interest of full disclosure, Jerry was kind enough to give me samples of his products for review.

Photography podcast #57 features an Interview with photographer Phil Borges at the 2008 Photoplus conference and expo in New York. (That conference/expo was excellent and packed full of cool new products and world renowned photographers/instructors including Phil Borges as guest speakers/lecturers – Very much recommended and I’m going back in 2009).
In the interview Phil very briefly discusses his career and some of his bodies of work in photography, talks about his artistic style and technique, and shares the way he currently prints his work.
