speedlinks It has been busy in the photography blogosphere - here is some stuff I found to be interesting.

  • 6 methods for perfectly focused self-portraits

    Great article about nailing them unfocused self portraits. Of course - once you are in focus, you have to make sure you're having a good hair day.
  • The DIY Flexible Flash Arm

    Some DIY competition - a great step by step tutorial on building a flexible flash holder arm thingy. Keep up the great work, Matt.
  • What Makes Good Composition?

  • Pictures of the Year 2007
    Reuters
    Every year Reuters releases their Pictures of the Year. 2007 is no different. Reuters is releasing hundreds of thousands of pictures each year - every picture that made it into the list is a great moment catch, a unique lighting, a rare moment, a feeling to treasure.
  • Photoshop case study: from picture to Christmas card the final
    All Day I Dream About Photography
    A three step tutorial on converting everyday image into a Christmas card fiesta.

This is one video that left me shocked. A camera that captures you when you smile. The next thing to invent is a camera that takes your picture when they tell you won the lottery. (I think I have one like this no my desk - didn't fail me yet).

I totally got caught up in the Pictures of the year thing. Thanks for sharing the links, once I get my head outta the pictures of the year, I will check out the other links..lol.

Smile... your on camera..

The camera that does the smile stuff, is the Sony Cybershot... either ther T70, or T200. From the video, it looks like the T200...

It works in conjunction with the face detection technology they also use. Pretty cool stuff.
