David Bergman’s Photography Blog and a Cool Digital Composite Image of the Inauguration

This post on David Bergman’s blog is pretty cool. He created this photo composite 220 Canon G10 images to make one picture of Barack Obama’s inauguration. He used a gigapan robotic camera mount to create the picture. Scroll in and out of the image and do some panning. See if you can find some dignitaries.

Be sure you visit the gigapan site, it will zoom straight into the snipers on a far rooftop. Cool use of technology.

Bastian’s Blog

My good friend, and reader, Sebastian Castillo has a new photography blog –mechageekzilla He even has his famous Cookie Monster photograph up on Jan 7.

I’m interested in seeing where he goes with this.

Some of his other images are available at his web site at sccastillostudios.com.

Yes, I just broke ranks and showed another digital photographer. I told you I’m not anti-digital. I just enjoy film.

I’m waiting for his pictures from his nice, shiny new Canon EOS 5D Mk II that he’s about to buy.

Photography Site of the Day – digitaljournalist.org

Here is a monthly magazine, The Digital Journalist. It’s an online magazine of visual journalism.

Some of the material here includes: these photos by David Turnley on Mandela’s Children.

Camera reviews, such as those of the The Canon 5D Mark II or the Nikon D700 are from a photojournalists perspective.

It has technical tips and photojournalism articles.

My only complaint: Since it’s a monthly, it isn’t updated as frequently as I would like to see. I guess that’s life.

This is a site well worth visiting.
