Eye as Camera


















Well now isn't this a coincidence? Pixiq has put together an article on the human eye and the camera! Those of you who have taken my beginning class will possibly remember the lecture from the first day, and those currently taking the class here is some review for you (with much better illustrations I suspect! :p).

Check out the link.

Images from the Last Roll of Kodachrome






















Steve McCurry, who brought Kodachrome to a new level of prominence with his National Geographic cover image Afghan Girl, gives his own take on the end of production and shares images that he shot using the last roll of Kodachrome ever produced.

Welcome Back! Helicopter Ride!

I hope everyone had a wonderful break!

This video technology has been around for a bit. We first saw it used in Haiti after the earthquake. North Studio 360 uses in a little more exciting fashion.

Check out the live interactive video in action. Be sure to click and drag around.
Can't wait to see what Google has planned for this.
