I’ve already got my calendar set to remind me.

It has finally dropped – this year’s John Lewis & Partners Christmas ad. Typically sappy but a lovely tribute and message.

Typically long-winded (and annoyingly repetitive) piece from AppleInsider but it is a good antidote to the “APPLE DOOMED!” stories coming out because of the recent stock slump.

He has passed but the things he helped create will outlast us all and give joy to millions for generations.

Popular Mechanics: In 2017, according to an annual report from music-industry research company Buzzangle, cassette sales in the U.S. rose 136 percent, even more than vinyl, which was the only other format in the beleaguered music industry that was still … Continued

This is a great point. I’ve gotten lucky with many shots but I’ve never gotten lucky with night shots. They require planning well ahead of time.

I have no dog in this hunt but I find it really interesting. Amazon is just playing the game the politicians have set up for them. And, if past is prologue, there will be no long-term damage to them over this.

I’ve been following this weirdly fascinating story for years. I loved the idea that an international measurement was represented in reality by one example of it deep in a lab vault in France. I’ll be a little sad when it gets replaced.

Absolutely amazing work. Even more impressive when you think about the time, experience, effort, and just plain luck required to get this incredible footage.

I don’t think this trend is reversible. Should it be? Is it time for the album to die?

I get why Apple feels they need to do this but I think, without a better, fuller explanation of their reasoning behind doing it (something we are unlikely to see/hear), they are on the wrong side of this issue. If they’re not careful, they may find themselves in legal hot water because of it.

Stan Lee brought a great deal of joy into the world.

The look of the Incredibles is very specific – seemingly familiar but not really.

I understand that many people aren’t happy about the decision but they feel it is the best decision for Flickr/SmugMug going forward.

Always interesting to see how tech is replacing some of this old school stuff.

On this 11th day of the 11th month at 11:11am PT, I post this in remembrance of all of those who have served and died for their country, many of my own family members included. Lest We Forget.

I hate dancing (I feel all uncoordinated and clumsy) but I love watching dancing. These 31 scenes from the movies are a blast to watch.

I’ll be in Lisbon, Portugal teaching a beginner photography workshop in March and I’m really hoping to get out to Nazaré to see these incredible waves. The men who surf them are utterly insane.

The colourizing of this footage is absolutely incredible.

I’ve been following Harley’s development of the LiveWire since the prototype was first unvelied in 2014. It’s a fascinating project but maybe not for the reasons Harley wants it to be.

This is great news for those of us who don’t live near any other Apple resellers.

Dave and I spent all of our time this week discussing the new iPad Pro and what it means for users. Dave also came up with a new way to mention Siri without turning on everyone’s iPhone during the podcast.

I don’t usually say this but don’t watch this video on Youtube. Watch it here first and notice when you spot what the issue is. The next question is, why was it banned?

I’ll most likely keep and pay for my Flickr account but many of you may not. Here’s one way to get your photos off of the service.

What a great story. I still remember my first time navigating New York City. This small town kid from Nova Scotia was terrified. I can’t imagine how scary it must be for the blind and their guide dogs.

My wife and I test drove a Tesla Model X over the weekend and came away impressed with the technology overall. The sales guy showed us a version of “Navigate on Autopilot” and it was very cool.

As a proud Nova Scotianer, I feel no shame in saying, categorically, that Newfoundlanders are the nicest people in Canada. I was honoured to have been screeched-in many years ago in a bar in St John’s and highly recommend it to anyone who visits this lovely province.

Mann looks at the new iPad Pro from the same POV I would – how is it for a professional photographer working in the field? After reading the review, I really want a new iPad for my photography workshop in Lisbon next March.

I’m not smart enough to understand much of what this article is about but the majority of the reviews of this new iPad reference how incredibly powerful the A12X system on a chip is.

What an incredible collection to peruse and use.
