This time we look at AP's sports week, Adra Pallón, print multiple images to one JPEG, the Zeiss ZM Biogon 35mm, the size of a bag, Jason Row reflects, Jimmy Carter, Elements 2025 and USB on macOS Sequoia.
- The Associated Press showcases its Sports Week in Pictures.
- In Lumes: Rural Depopulation & Cultural Extinction in Galicia, Magali Duzant features Adra Pallón's publication about northwest Spain. "I am not a well-traveled photographer. If I can be in my homeland and photograph a few kilometers away from home, all the better. Because for me having the same cultural codes is important to create images," he says.

"The saturation and contrast are high and, after I've passed f2.8 (heading toward f8.0) the sharpness across the frame is all I would ask for."
- Derrick Story recommends you Start With Your Bag, Then Work Backwards to travel light.

Reuters also posts images of Carter's Life in Photos.. And Margaret Renkle pens An Open Letter to Jimmy Carter, on His 100th Birthday (gift link) that starts, "No one but a teenager in the midst of a convulsive shift in world views would call us two peas in a pod, Carter, but with the hubris of youth, I felt we were. You in Georgia and me in Alabama -- at home but belonging nowhere."
- Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Elements 2025 is now available for download with a three-year license for $149.99. New AI-powered features include removing objects, creating depth, changing the color of an object, compositing and more. Adorama and B&H are both accepting orders.
- If You're Having Problems With USB on macOS Sequoia, You're Not Alone, Malcolm Owen reports. "Drives and chargers plugged into the USB-C ports of a MacBook aren't being detected or take a long time to become usable," he writes. "Others in the Apple support community discovered that their USB flash drives aren't being recognized."
