Discovery: A Visual Eulogy » ISO50 Blog – The Blog of Scott Hansen (Tycho / ISO50)
I've never seen photos of a shuttle like this. It's interesting to see the textures and the almost paper mâché look that it has. In a world of plastic models of the shuttle, it's good to be reminded of the age in which it was designed and the exotic materials it required.

Making Fast ISO Decisions in the Field / Duncan Davidson
A good post mortem on an an image and why the photographer shot at high iso on a bright, sunny day. Definitely something I need to remember as I usually tend to shoot at ISO100 or nothing in the sun. I should really put more effort into considering ISO as a variable even outdoors.

Human Eye Camera « FOUR FIFTHS DESIGN
An interesting concept: What would it look like if our eye could output RAW images? The author stitches photos using knowledge of our eye's optics to demonstrate... Would be really fun to do a series using a GigaPan or something like that, but it would be easier if my eye just output DNG files.
