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 World Photography Day, musical photos, Nikon Z 7 nightscapes, tonality and waterfalls.
- It's World Photography Day (and, for that matter, World Photography Week). We plan to celebrate informally. But if you need a little inspiration search for #WorldPhotographyDay posts on your favorite social media platform.

So the Getty asked a few composers to make one-minute audio responses (or "microcompositions") to five specific photographs in its In Focus: Sound exhibition.
- Will Chaney drove eight hours to shoot Nightscapes With the Nikon Z 7 II in Big Bend National Park. "The extra resolution is incredible to look at when pulling the photos into Lightroom and Photoshop," he writes, among other advantages to the rig.
- In Matters of Tone, Mike Johnston reprocesses a black-and-white image by Guy Ross-Clift. "When I'm working on B&W, I'm often guided by the 'feel' of the way the light actually was in the scene," he writes.
- Dahlia Ambrose details some Tips and Tools to Help You Capture Enchanting Photos of Waterfalls.
