Origin II from Keith Loutit on Vimeo.
Origin II « Keith Loutit PhotoBlog:
This was shot by me from 2 vantage points in Sydney’s ANZ Stadium. New for me is the extended reach using tilted lenses, as well as a faster shutter rate to capture action without having to shoot video. I’m shooting timelapse so have taken some liberties in recombining the footage to tell my version of the story.

Showcase: The Walls Speak – TIM HETHERINGTON
Showcase: The Walls Speak – Lens Blog – NYTimes.com:
In 2000, a U.N. combat unit entered a deserted village near Shegbwema in eastern Sierra Leone — territory then held by the Revolutionary United Front, a rebel group infamous for its use of child soldiers and widespread amputations. The abandoned buildings were covered with cryptic and deranged drawings. Here and there were sentences, names, questions and statements — all of which made no sense to me at that time. Empty of life, the village was an eerie and suffocating place, and the drawings hinted at a deeper psychosis.

PHOTOGRAPHER’S Q&A – JASON FRANSON
NPAC – News Photographers Association of Canada:
I really like watching television. I’m going to be honest here. Multimedia bores me and I think it bores most readers; at least that’s what I figure by the low numbers of hits. I myself can’t make it past the one-minute mark on most projects, and this makes me wonder for how long the average watcher, who doesn’t do this for a living, stays tuned in.

whats the jackanory ? – inside the photographers_studio #6:
It is with huge excitement today that we premiere the latest installment of the hugely popular series Inside the Photographers_Studio/House/Office whatever. This time we were fortunate to be granted access to the inner sanctum of one Mr Phillip Toledano Esq. I have been a massive fan of Mr Toledano’s for like forever and although I had only met him socially once previously he was incredibly warm and welcoming when I arrived with the film crew.

Hanna-Barbera's All Star Comedy Ice Review
WFMU’s Beware of the Blog: Worst of the Worst of the Worst… of the Worst:
In my ongoing mission to torture Beware of the Blog readers with insufferable nineteen seventies kitsch I have sunk to a new low. I would have sunk to this earlier but this did not hit the internet until this week. I thought it could get no worse than The Brady Kids – Wonder Woman crossover. I was wrong. Roy Clark, jonesing for even more stomach-churning hokum than Hee-Haw could offer, called up the chick from One Day at a Time to help host a roast and celebration of Fred Flintstone. Not the real Fred Flintstone but one in a giant foam outfit. Along for the ride, defying all stone-age continuity, are other Hanna-Barbera characters in oversized cloth forms : Jabberjaw, The Banana Splits, Snagglepuss, Hong Kong Phooey, The Hair Bear Bunch and on down the line. The laugh track seems to be enjoying itself immensely (although if you listen closely you might hear a bit of a retch track). This is truly the worst thing I have ever seen
