Environmental Graffiti has 30 seriously incredible abstract satellite images.  The links to the additional pages are a little difficult to find with all of the comments so you can click here to see page two and three.  Wow.

Wow. Here is a crazy video of a (very stupid) photographer being struck by lightning. I don’t know what she expected to happen standing at the top of a hill with a camera in one hand and holding a railing with the other. Brilliant.

Balakov has some incredible lego versions of classic photographs.  You need to check out the photographs of the “setup”, it is quite impressive to see how he duplicated the scene(s).

There are some remarkable photographs from the 2007 International Photography Awards Competition.  I would have to say that my personal favorite would be the water photograph.

We bought a Sony Cyber-Shot DSCW55L.  Well, “I” bought one but it will most likely be used by D.G. during the summer program so that she can take pictures of the kids.  It is quite similar to my SLR (big screen and 7.2mp) but it is *really* lightweight and fits nicely into a pocket.   We haven’t had the chance to use it yet, but I’m sure the pictures will be excellent quality.

Another reason why I don’t plan on swimming with tigers anytime soon.

I started uploading my photographs tonight.  You can view them on Flickr.  It will most likely take me a while to go through all of them (since there are 650+) so be patient.

I bought a Sony Cybershot DSC-H5. Well, more specifically my family bought it for my birthday. I wanted a digital camera that I could stuff in my backpack and not be concerned about lenses, etc. It is the perfect choice if you are looking for something similar, as the optical zoom easily allows you to cover the spectrum of focal length options. I should probably also read the instructions this weekend while I am going through the Japan guide books.
Key Features:

• 12x Optical Zoom (35mm ~ 438mm)
• 24x Precision Digital Zoom
• 3″ Display
• Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® Lens
• 7.2MP

I also found an excellent price $45.00 (including shipping) for a 2GB Sony Pro Duo Memory Stick on eBay. It is easily 1/4 of the price if I bought it locally. I couldn’t believe it was so inexpensive. I can’t wait until it gets here so that I can take more than 12 pictures since the camera only has 32MB of onboard memory.
