friday mash up
June 29, 2007 by pmelcher.
It has been very hot here, in New York city, these last few days. It is not just the heat that is unbearable, but mostly the vapor humidity that turns you into a wet sponge the minute you step outside. Fortunately, a line of angry powerful thunderstorms broke the hellish spell, lifting the heavy lid of miserable days. Guess the heatwave did not just hit New York.
Time for a NO Sense posting:
I have seen it all category :
Sports photography with a lensbabies !!!! aargh. What next ? photography without a lens? Shoot with your toe ? They should have a show on TV called “photographers gone wild”
The no news day will be personal news:
Usually very professional blog Stockphototalk goes nasty and very personal today ( link withheld on purpose. I do not want to advertise this story). What next, publish images of Darryl Lang in embarrassing situation ? Publish tax returns from Jim Pickerell ? How is this related to photography ? Why so much hate ?
Corbis decide to help Bill Gates, financially:
From Gary Shenk’s memo, CEO of Corbis :”As I indicated earlier this year, we will intensify our focus on profitability and shareholder value.” Since Corbis has only one shareholder, I am sure he is jumping up and down in anticipation of the extra income he will be soon be making. In the mean time 160 more people are paying the price from the ongoing mismanagement of the company.
Agent Mulder anyone ?:
Thomas Hawk, fame blogger and CEO of “Flickr killer” site Zoomr gets it all wrong when he abruptly attacks Corbis latest creation SnapVillage. He places the RF market at $2.5 billion ( that would be nice), complains about the royalty percentage, and believes putting a cap on image pricing is part of the master plan from the big three (Corbis, Getty, Jupiter) to control the world.
Finally, the English have it the Voltaire way:
According to the most vocal of the UK based photographer group, it is time to take care of your garden. I guess if you can’t make it in the editorial world, you might as well get a quick buck with no traveling expenses.
