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 20 photos, TTArtisan lenses, the moon and some steampunk scans.
- Jim Powell presents Twenty Photographs of the Week from around the world, including Cop26 in Glasgow, a migrant caravan in Mexico, refugees trapped on the border between Belarus and Poland and floods in Bangkok.
- Kirk Tuck has posted more images taken with his inexpensive, manual-focus TTArtisan lenses.

More to come! Meanwhile, here's a look back. And please support our efforts...
