Don’t let the name fool you, LolCat Buildr is not just about cats (although there are MANY, MANY cats pictures there). Upload your favorite pic and go nuts with the caption. Don’t let the fun stop there, turn your creation into a t-shirt, mug, or mousepad.
Brian Shaler had some fun with motion and light in his Light-Speed Escalator image. It’s always good to remember that movement in your images can be a very cool thing. Nice job Brian!
Available light doesn’t always shine through for you when you need it.
So what do you do? Give up the shot, call it a day . . .heck no! You are a photo MacGuyver. You whip out that flashlight of yours and make your own light, like so:
The number one camera question I get asked is “Do you know what this means on my camera?” and then they point to the somewhat informative pictograph labels on their settings dial.

It’s easy to fall in love with your city, but the challenge is to reveal the heart of it in a photograph. CITY Magazine in New York wants you to try!
The magazine is running an international travel photography competition in which the winning shot will appear on the cover of the upcoming Fall Travel issue, along with a host of other prizes. Photographers are asked to submit images that best capture the essence of a city or other travel destination.
You have until 11:59 p.m. EST on June 30, 2007 to discover the essence of your city and submit it to the contest. Good luck!
We totally love it when readers take one of our projects and make one just as cool. Reader Mary did just that with Project 365
“I decided to adopt the idea for 2007, and to piggy-back off of the original idea . . .making a calendar on iPhoto and drag and drop each picture in each day that I took it. At the end of the year, I would order the calendar and have a tangible visual of what I did every day for this year.”
It’s a great way to mark those milestones and a neat twist on the project. Thanks for sharing it Mary!
The Musée de l’Elysée, a museum for photography in Switzerland, is taking online submissions for an exhibition entitled “We Are All Photographers Now”. The basic premise is to examine “the rapid mutation of amateur photography in the digital age.”
From the site:
“A hundred images every week will be chosen at random by a computer and printed on HP paper, so as to ensure the highest standards of archival quality. These pictures will then be shown as such for a full week before being replaced by the selection from the following week, and be subsequently archived in the permanent collection of the Musée de l’Elysée.”
According to the participation page, they have received photos from 7,071 photographers in 123 countries! Not bad! Thanks to Photojojo reader Lauren for pointing us to this very cool project.
You can never underestimate the value of a comfortable, fashionable t-shirt in your photography cache. Luckily, you don’t have to look very far to find one since we happen to know Oddica has reprinted their Gary Gao’s Ghost Cameras shirt. Hurry and get one before they are gone.
