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 Oktoberfest, unusual pictures, shlepn and the Nikon D4.

  • Matthias Schrader captures the opening of the 191st Oktoberfest in Munich without spilling a drop.
  • Reuters presents The Week in Unusual Pictures in 13 photos.
  • In Shlepn, Mike Johnston painfully recalls hauling his father's rented tripod around Europe, the 16th birthday present he got that was "one of the best presents I ever got in my life" and how pool helped him recover from "neck pain from constantly draping heavy equipment on straps around my neck."
