That is a tough one. It's hard because there's nothing "apples to apples" with a male. If some girl stared at my chest, I really couldn't care less. Now, if a girl made me uncomfortable in some way because of some a

Inevitably when you take away privacy you hamper freedom of speech. There have already been polls of journalists who are concerned with reporting on important items because of a lack of privacy.

It's not so much as arrogance as it is just being honest about the quality of outsourced work. If you were worried about offending people, you would come up with all sorts of excuses for not outsourcing work. But honesty is not always

Maybe I don't see a lot of good photos because I'm not looking hard enough. But the problem with "GAS" is that it puts all the focus on the gear and takes attention away from technique/lighting/composition etc.

Not to mention that pouring boiling water through cheap plastic leaches industrial chemicals into our coffee, thereby increasing our chances of cancer. Plus Keurig tastes like a cup of monkey-poo. French press is the way to go (or iced coff

"Fiction is self-perpetuating." I've found really interesting ways that this manifests itself. I'm a film-camera lover. Well, my Fuji GW690 mk3 is fantastic, except that when I trip the shutter, there's an awful &qu

I never understand an article that is only negative and never presents a viable alternative. OK - So you think Angular is not good for "professional" work. Then what is? Present an alternative and compare and contrast them. Then w

Awesome. So the writer writes about how he might not have a story because a cat moves in next door. Problem solved by kids chasing it away. But, uh oh, no story because Fall occurs and acorns are on the ground. But that's no problem be

I don't really support trying to get a broad understanding of philosophy. It's much better to get in-depth with a specific philosopher and then move on to the next, chronologically. One thing I haven't seen mentioned is that

The M series is Leica's defining camera series. These offshoots are just more revenue streams. Sony has really come out strong. I still shoot film but if I made my way back to digital I would go with a A7.

Yea. Leica makes jewelry. They are great cameras. But they are also jewelry.

I don't think "Point and Shoot" is the correct term. Those refer to cameras with fixed zoom lenses. This has interchangeable lenses and therefore is within the "mirrorless" category.

Well, putting it that way, it is an insult. This is why companies have someone who is intelligent craft delicate messages. There are a lot of common sense things in this world. Washing behind your ears, changing your sheets... etc.

Hmmm. So you don't think that this is front-page worthy. That's interesting. Here's something to take note of - your opinion doesn't matter. The magic of a democracy is that a group* of opinions do matter. Also, 2 second

I could agree with that. I use instagram as well and like it for the reasons you mentioned. But what your hitting upon is that it's not necessarily photography, but more a social experience. As you put it: >A different art form alto

I agree. I was disappointed that they emphasized minimalism with light, shadow, composition etc but then made these photos to look heavily post-processed. Much too much contrast here.

If I seriously wanted to learn about photography, I wouldn't look at instagram (over-saturation, higher contrast... in other words, a lack of subtlety). That sounds much more akin to backdrops for hipster startup home pages and blogs.
