Another day in Maine…
Stampy Digital Camera gives you the option of creating a rubber-stamp version of your photograph, so you can stamp it onto any sheet of paper or surface. The concept by Jinhee Kim.

I need this so I can start rubber stamping things.
Evil Genius
Coal Miner, circa 1910 (by John McNab)
Somewhere in Pennsylvania.
Photographer: Lewis W. Hines.
That’s one hell of a photo. My great grandfather and great uncles all worked coal mines near Scranton, PA in 1910. The stories I’ve heard are terrible. I don’t even like going into caves.

STATUE OF LIBERTY PICTURES: Rare Views, Inside and Out
Circa-1930 tourists peer out of the Statue of Liberty’s crown at a photographer on the torch, which has been closed to the public since a 1916 explosion on a nearby island. From the flame’s tip to the ground is 305 feet (93 meters).

Cradled in the statue’s left arm is a tablet bearing the date of U.S. independence in Roman numerals: July IV, MDCCLXXVI. Independence Day 2009 will see the reopening of the Statue of Liberty’s crown.
I could not find the word ‘digital’ in Lee Frost’s book - 500 Composition Hints, Tips and Techniques for Photographers. Anywhere … and then it popped up in a chapter on the type of camera you should use. There, the point is made that “it doesn’t matter whether you shoot digitally or expose film, the same rules apply”, then this is followed by the recommendation that it’s a better practice to compose the picture when shooting and not fix it later.
Awesome presentation from Scott Stulberg
