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. This time we look at Hannah Reyes Morales, the 2018 Sony World Photography Awards, Arlene Gottfried, the Nikon D850, a few Photoshop tools, SD cards and The Fence.
- In Finding Tenderness in Communities Affected by Manila's Anti-Drug Killings, James Estrin tells the story of photographer Hannah Reyes Morales. She stepped away from covering President Rodrigo Duterte's brutal war on drugs to photograph the "people and communities that continue to live amid all this violence and all this death."
- Alan Taylor presents 25 images from The 2018 Sony World Photography Awards, which attracted nearly 320,000 entries from over 200 countries.
- In Loss and Hope in the Unseen Photos of Arlene Gottfried, Ellyn Kail reports on the 15,000 images New York gallerist Daniel Cooney found in storage facility. After the photographer's death, he selected 50 of them to exhibit as A Lifetime of Wandering.
- Terry White has posted The World's First Nikon D850 Review in 360° 4K. "If you watch the above video you should be able to pan around in a 360[° space and watch anything you want when you want," he writes. It works, kinda:
- Julieanne Kost explains The Eyedropper, Color Samplers and Info Panel in Photoshop CC.
- Gannopn Burgett explains How to Choose the Best SD Cards for Your Camera. Our advice: buy brand names only and overbuy both capacity and class. Your cards are likely to outlive your camera.
- The Fence, an eight-city outdoor photography exhibit, is accepting early-bird submissions at $35 through March 13.
