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 a book sale, McNally goes noir, Atlas Obscura and imaginary drawings become real.
- Mike Johnston is having a book sale on :Origins of American Photography by Keith F. Davis, senior curator of photography at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Mo. The books are new and available at a 50 percent discount of $32.50 plus shipping.
- Joe McNally used Nice, Simple Light to capture a mysterious woman at the Algonquin Hotel's Blue Bar in his new noir series.
- If you're looking for some sites to shoot, the Atlas Obscura has collected 10,000 Places in the Atlas on One Map. "The possibilities are vast, from the Icelandic witchcraft museum to the tree goats of Morocco, to Galileo's middle finger, to the Skeleton Lake of India and thousands of other strange wonders across the world's continents and oceans."
- In Dad Turns His Six-Year-Old Son's Drawings Into Reality, Dom's imaginary drawings become Dad's realistic illustrations. And you thought working on that Halloween costume was taxing.
