Shooting Challenge #12 – The Winner Is…

While the snowy weather kept many of you entertained this past week, some of you took the challenge baton and ran with it. Boy did you run with it; making the job of picking a winner particularly challenging. On the surface, the brief was simple; take a 'streetscape' self-portrait in the style of celebrated American photographer Lee Friedlander. But the challenge was more than just a picture; I wanted the story behind it. Read More >>

According to You, These Are the Hottest Gadgets of 2013

And no, the answer's not 42. Read More >>
