Around The Horn

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 AP's week, Reuters oddities, wildlife's week, courthouse arrests and Darktable vs. Lightroom vs. Rawtherapee.
- The Associated Press showcases its top Photos of the Week curated by photo editor Shuji Kajiyama.
- Reuters contributes 14 of its Oddest Photos of the Week from around the world again.
- Pejman Faratin curates images of the Week in Wildlife for the Guardian.
- Victor J. Blue documents ICE's Relentless Courthouse Arrests. "It is this breach of trust -- this shattering of a person's faith in the benevolence and intrinsic fairness of America -- that is the hardest thing to watch," he writes. "Here legally, engaged in a sanctioned process to determine their eligibility for asylum, they have committed no crime. They are arrested anyway and the lives they've risked to come to the United States are thrown into chaos."
- A Reddit poster writes a Review of Darktable vs. Lightroom vs. Rawtherapee after coming from Lightroom. "I would choose Darktable if I did not have Lightroom, but if Rawtherapee had the masking abilities of Darktable I would choose Rawtherapee," they write. "I was hoping these programs would be like GIMP which I can use no worries instead of PS as its just a little more work, but I think the gap is just a bit big for me."
