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 Burning Man, Mpox, La Tomatina Festival, Emerging Photography Awards, Claudia Fuggetti, Peggy Nolan and landscape photographs.

- In Metamorphosis, Sophie Wright interviews Claudia Fuggetti about her "chromatic interventions." She says, "For me, post-production is a moment when the images reveal themselves in another way. I often get lost in the post-production process, listening to music and beginning to imagine the possibilities that the photographed image can offer."
- Flashbak features Peggy Nolan's photos of her Seven Children Coming of Age. "These photographs are mostly not posed: I just butted into my kids' personal business and, a lot of times, they weren't that happy about it," she says. "But I promised them they'd appreciate it eventually and now they do."
