Proof that you don’t need a super fancy camera to get a great shot. A friend of mine, Greg Weston captured this image off his point and shoot camera. He took this at the Tour of California in Sacramento, the cyclist is Yaroslav Popovych.

Official Presidential Portrait

Today Change.gov released the official presidential portrait of President Barack Obama. The photograph was taken by newly-announced official White House photographer Pete Souza. It is interesting to note that this is the FIRST time that the Official Presidential Portrait has been taken with a digital camera (Canon, 5D Mark II).

By The Side Of The Road

One of my favorite sites is the Amy Stein Photography blog. She is a photographer and teacher (Parsons New School For Design) in New York City. One of her projects that I have been following is a series called Stranded, where she drives across America and photographs stranded motorists on the side of the road.
