Photographer Andrea Zampatti has captured a photo of this adorable dormouse that appears to be very delighted. ‘Quivering with glee, the little giggler threw back his head, thrust his whiskers in the air and let out a hearty chuckle.’
New mid-range, enthusiast-focused APS-C DSLR from Nikon is here - the D7100. There is also a cool new radio remote control- The WR-1 that lets you remotely control multiple cameras capturing stills and videos, even time-lapse sequences.
The D7100 promises high resolution by making do without an optical low-pass filter in front of its 24MP CMOS sensor. It gains a more sophisticated 51-point autofocus system and a 7fps 1.3x cropped shooting mode that provides a 2x crop compared to a 35mm system. The D7100 has a recommended price of $1,599/£1,299/€1,399 with 18-105mm F3.5-5.6 VR lens.

‘Mental Picture’ by Wolfgang Tillmans is part of ‘The Unphotographable’ exhibition at the Fraenkel Gallery in San Francisco that explores ‘a parallel history in which photographers and other artists have attempted to describe by photographic means that which is not so readily seen: thought, time, ghosts, god, dreams.’

‘UK-based photographer Steve Adams has a great skill for calling attention to very simple, everyday details within the natural world. In this series of work, he captures the mystifying elegance of a full moon as it rises against the surface of the Earth or hangs up high, a tiny circle in the sky.’ Read more at My Modern Met

The NY Post ran a cover story and photo this morning about a man (Ki Suk Han) being pushed onto a NY subway track, and then being struck by a train, killing him. The photographer, working for the NY Post, claims he was unable to help the man, but the photo he took moments before the man’s death, has sparked a heated debate about the events that took place, and whether he could have done more.
From the Post article:
“Post freelance photographer R. Umar Abbasi — who had been waiting on the platform of the 49th Street station — ran toward the train, repeatedly firing off his flash to warn the operator.”
“I just started running, running, hoping that the driver could see my flash,” said Abbasi, whose camera captured chilling shots of Suk’s tragic fight for his life.”
Lori Nix’s specialty is dioramas. ‘It often takes her seven months to construct and photograph a scene, so it’s no wonder when viewing her work that it is sometimes hard to tell whether it’s life sized or scale.’
