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 the Hahnemühle Student Award, Dawn Wilson, Jared, Claudine Williams, Rune Guneriussen, capturing colors and art photography.
- The Guardian showcases this year's shortlist of the Photo London X Hahnemühle Student Award. The work will be on display at Somerset House in London May 10 to 14. Photo London champions young photographers at the fair through both the Hahnemühle student award and the Nikon emerging photographer award.
- Photographer Dawn Wilson discusses Bears, Birds and Bucket Lists. "Helping others achieve their own bucket list items, like seeing a brown bear catching salmon or nailing their first eagle-in-flight shot on one of my workshops, brings joy to what I do as a nature photographer," she writes.
- In Pictures Worth a Thousand Miles, Kelby McIntosh tells the story of Jared, who gave up his Silicon Valley coding job to shoot photographs in Alaska. He returned to the Bay area to care for his ailing mother and while he's here he gives his photos away on the street.
- Suzanne Sease features the personal project of Claudine Williams photographing a Morgan horse.
- Kate Mothes reports Norwegian artist Rune Guneriussen is Illuminating Remote Landscapes to tell a story about nature and transformation. "Being an artist for 20 years, always working in and with nature, it has been a story of going from optimism to seeing our nature in a dystopian manner. I have felt nature change to a degree I cannot recognize," he says.
- In another piece for LensRentals, Jim Kasson explains How Your Camera and Image Processor Determine Colors. It isn't simple. "Our perception of color at any position in the visual field is affected by luminous intensity, the surrounding information, whether we perceive an object to be self-luminous or not, our state of adaptation, the size of the image and many things stemming from the processing of color information in the brain," he writes.
- In I Hate Art Photography, Andrew Molitor tackles "the relentless, deliberate, lack of affect" of "contemporary Serious Art Photograph."
