Nazi Zombies, Everywhere!

Saw this funny news story. Apparently somebody hacked a construction sign to alert drivers that zombies were near. I hope it was a false drill...

Her Morning Elegance

Love the music to the cool time lapse music video that Eyal Landesman created. Check out the video below and judge for yourself.

Photo Contests

The post entitled "The Biggest Scam In Photography" got me thinking about photo contests. I've taken part in a few before; one gaining me some good exposure, the others doing nothing other than stroking my ego and shrinking my wallet. I agree a lot with what Rob has to say but for now at least, I'll still be submitting stuff to the big ones he mentioned. There's nothing like some extra ammunition when you want to go all out and cockrock (definition here courtesy Thomas Broening) when you've got some big name photo contests under your belt.

Seems Rob's post started some controversy (how easy to do) when he specifically mentioned the "Billboard Competition" that PDN runs. The bloggers over at PDN Pulse apparently didn't like it and have their own post defending it.

Best and Worse Fight Scenes

In my opinion, there's nothing better than a bad movie. Without further ado, truly, the best (in a bad way) fight scene ever:



And the worst (in a good way):



I remember seeing video clips of a great, bad movie over at Something Awful almost 10 years ago but it seems as though they've taken them down. The title had Black, and maybe Hand in it. Basically each fight scene consisted of men slapping each other. Good stuff.

Chase Jarvis Shoe Project

I stumbled upon this random project created by Russell Byrne to shoot hotshot photographer Chase Jarvis' shoes. Got them from another local photographer, Scott Hargis (fantastic Real Estate photography), and incorporated them into a recent shoot. Follow the project at www.chasejarvisshoeproject.com

The Very Calm Photographer

Car photographer Easton Chang posted this hilarious (well, at least to me) animated gif of a photographer at a Rally Race acting like a high speed crash is nothing to fret about.
