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 Bryan Adams, Joel Meyerowtiz, Light Stalking's May contest winners, the Nikon Z 6 III and the Pentax 17.

"It became common for him to make two photographs of the same subject and later examine the pairs side-by-side to pose questions about composition, perception, expression, etc."
