Media Monday! Intriguing!!

Heard of the Nokia 808 PureView?  Neither had we.  It's a cell phone. With a 41 MP CAMERA.  During a debate party full of photo industry people it was mentioned and we had to have our own debate. Is it real?  Is it necessary?  Is it totally CRAZY?  



If you don't have time to read it all, here's their final word:

"The 808 proves that Nokia can innovate, and its PureView technology has piqued the interest of serious photographers, being one of the most important innovations - arguable the most important - in mobile photography since the smartphone era dawned five or so years ago.  As such, the 808 is intriguing not just in itself, but because of what it represents.  Things could be about to get interesting...."

What do you think?  What implications could this have for the future of digital photography, if any?

Cabin in the Woods....

No, not this Cabin in the Woods:


This one is a little more 'homey' and a lot less terrifying!  

I'm sure you'd love to spend some time (maybe not alone) in this gorgeous Jackson Hole, WY cabin photographed by Attic Fire:

Be careful... it's isolated out there.

Media Monday

Beginning today, we're starting our weeks off with a look at industry news and topics.  Our industry changes so quickly and there is so much work out there, here's our chance to reflect on anything that's caught our eye in the past week.  Have a topic you want to discuss?  Leave suggestions in the comments section!


To start us off, let's take a look at politics...

The election is just around the corner and the campaigns are all we're hearing about.  With all the focus on the future, let's take a look back at White House photographer Pete Souza's edit of Obama's last four years for Time:


This body of work is not only interesting to look at, but as one of the first presidencies caught entirely on digital cameras, interesting from a business point of view as well.  The Obama Administration uses Flickr as a means to disseminate images, and Souza and his team are prohibited from deleting any photographs. I'd love to know their workflow.

As we all know, editing your own work is hard, says Souza:

While preparing this edit for LightBox, he acknowledged that it was hard to present what a presidency is about in just a handful of pictures. “I don’t gravitate toward any singular image right now,” he says. “I try to look at a body of work, and so I’m proud of this edit that I submitted. To me, it’s all these photographs together which tell you something about this man, this President, and I guess to a certain extent, about me and what I think is important.”

Do you think this edit conveys a historically accurate portrait of the past four years?
