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 Reuters behind the scenes, Africa Foto Fair, Sofía Jaramillo, Carl Corey and the Z system sales.

- Eromo Egbejule spotlights images on display at the Africa Foto Fair organized by photographer Aïda Muluneh in Abidjan. "There's always this perception in Africa that art is only for the elite. These are the things that I'm trying to shift in what I do," she says.
- In A New Winter, Heidi Volpe interviews Sofía Jaramillo about her Sun Valley project. "For those who don't ski or haven't spent much time on ski hills in the U.S., according to the Snow Sports Industry of America's 2022-2023 annual report, only 13 percent of all skiers were Hispanic, 9 percent were Black and 8 percent were Asian, making skiing one of the least diverse sports," Jaramillo says. "As a young Latina who grew up in Sun Valley, this project reflects my personal journey with identity and my desire to see a future in winter sports culture where everyone feels they belong."
