Note Well
Note Well is a new book by Debbie Carlos for 5x7.
Debbie's photos attempt to capture objects at their moments of greatest clarity: In certain light, at a certain time of day, in a certain place. The method is to wander and notice. Moments of quiet strangeness, patterns of light and shadow, minute-by-minute surprises, changes that don’t happen, something askew, something exactly in place, natural and artificial phenomena, are all sources of inspiration, and the subjects for her work.

Meet Lytro
Oh my. I want one.
Check out this amazing camera. Most cameras only capture a single plane of light, the Lytro camera captures the entire light field, which is all the light traveling in every direction in every point in space. Which means instead of a standard photographer capturing one plane, you instantly capture complete light field data.
What does it mean? It means the future is here (and it's not a jetpack). Now you can focus after the fact, essentially since you'll capture the color, intensity, and direction of all the light, you can focus after the fact. Focus and re-focus, anywhere in the picture. Here is an example.
the New Gypsies
Gorgeous series of images by photographer Iain McKell documenting the “new gypsy” tribes of England.

Edward Burtynsky
"Burtynsky's study on man's effect began when he first started University. It was a project his professor gave him, to document the evidence of man on earth, and, according to Burtynsky, he is still working on that initial project."
Many of you are probably already familiar with this photographer, a 2005 TED award winner and Canadian, who's work has been shown all over the world. There's also a documentary of his work entitled Manufactured Landscapes that I can't wait to watch when I get home. The opening scene is amazing.
