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 Lake Tahoe, The Window Project, Erika Pino, solar flares and photography's next generation.
- The Tahoe Fund live streamed a Deep Dive to the rarely seen bottom of the 1,645-foot deep lake, the largest alpine lake in North America:
- The Window Project in San Francisco's Mission District is a display of dozens of black-and-white photos by elementary school students. "Children from Leonard R. Flynn Elementary School in the Mission took all the photos on display, the result of a collaboration between the students, Galería de la Raza and Sergio De La Torre, an artist and University of San Francisco fine arts professor, who also enlisted his students to help with the effort."
- Bay area photographer Erika Pino is known for her lifestyle, editorial and portrait work.

"After my freshman year in college at Berkeley, I took a summer photography class on a whim and was hooked," she says.
- Dmitri Lovetsky shoots The Sun and Its Solar Flares with a Sky Watcher Heliostar 76mm h-alpha solar telescope. But that's just one element of his complex (if portable) setup.
