Watch the inner workings of a DSLR in slow motion.

Thanks to Illia Petrechuk for sending this our way.  The "Slow Mo Guys" have a YouTube channel where they film all sorts of interesting things in slow motion.  Our favorite?  This video showing the inner workings of a DSLR in slow motion.

Monday Morning Musings - Sylwana Zybura

Sylwana Zybura a.k.a. "Madame Peripetie" combines fashion, make-up and a Surreal eye to make eye-catching and sometimes bizarre portraits.  You can see more work on her website:  http://madameperipetie.com.  There is also a nice feature on the Romanian website Oitzarisme.ro with many of her images if you are interested.

Monday Morning Musings - As seen on the NY Trip - Julie Blackmon

Beautiful weather and great photos!  What's not to love?  I thought it might be a nice time to share one of the group's favorites from the NY Trip on Friday.  Julie Blackmon's most recent photographs were on view at the Robert Mann Gallery.  Blackmon cites Dutch 17th Century painter Jan Steen as one of her major influences.  Her carefully staged images combine just enough order with just enough chaos.  For more images, you can visit her website.
