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 Istanbul, the women who covered Vietnam, iPhone X questions, Persistence of Vision and Medium Photo Boards.
- Ming Thein's Cityscape Istanbul was shot with a Hasselblad H6D-100c, various lenses and post processed with his $80 Photoshop Workflow III.
- In The Women Who Covered Vietnam, Elizabeth Becker tells that untold story, citing photographer Dickey Chapelle and French photojournalist Catherine Leroy among the print journalists who rewrote the rules "so that the phrase 'woman war correspondent' would never again be an oxymoron."
- In iPhone X -- What Do You Want to Know?, Derrick Story is taking questions. Your questions, "if you want me to look at anything specifically."
- Persistence of Vision III is a short animated film by Ismael Sanz-Pena made with one photo of the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, Norway. Ah, those Norwegians. Don't laugh, er du snill.
- Medium Photo Boards are five $40 28x22-inch flat photography backdrop boards printed with a high-resolution image for close-up product photography. Images include whitewhashed shiplap, slate, rustic wood, wool and white marble.
