In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at Gaza, MacBook Pro refresh, a wedding production camera support package and NPS webcams.
- In Photographing on the Ground in Gaza, James Estrin interviews freelancer photographer Sergey Ponomarev who describes his day, "You leave early in the morning to see the houses destroyed the night before. Then you go to funerals, then to the hospital because more injured people arrive and in the evening you go back to see more destroyed houses."
- Apple has updated its MacBook Pro with faster processors, double the memory in both entry-level Retina configurations and a new, lower starting price for the top-of-the-line 15-inch notebook and the 13-inch non-Retina model.
- The camera support specialists at ProAm USA have put together a $919.95 Orion DVC210 12' Wedding Production Package with a camera crane, tripod, LCD monitor, sunshade, carrying bag and more.
- Can't get away this summer? Take a break with one of the National Park Service's webcams. There's everything from the Lincoln Memorial to Hawaiian volcanoes.
