Take this moment to click on this link and learn more about a documentary film to air on PBS, on April 16, 2008 at 9 pm EST. It's a must-see.

That's right, Anjali Bhargava has a brand new site. I have posted a link or two before to her work. That one of the dancer's legs in the far left corner of the frame in a sea of blue is my favorite. That and other images are on a much bigger display now. The site is has a nice clean, feather-weight feel to it. So, go check out this New York city photographer now (and buy some of her prints).

Confused? Hope not. I stumbled upon a blog today called “Tiffin Box” that is all about vegetarian cooking. .

“I’m a vegetarian Indian graduate student living in the American Midwest. I love food and I miss home. There’s no “ethnic” market here to speak of, and I don’t have access to most of the vegetables and other stuff I need to cook real home-style Indian vegetarian cuisine.”

Yummy stuff. Go check it out (then come back here to comment).

Want quick and (sometimes) dirty digital prints? For free? Now, I got your attention, huh?

I stumbled across this site that lists all the different places where you can drop your files and receive free prints. The catch of course is you have to set up accounts in each one of them. Nothing is for really free is it? But would you do it for 365 free prints? I bet you would. Then I came upon PhotoFun. A 4″x6″ is a whopping 5 cents.

Well, there is another catch. Using these consumer level print houses for my clients would be a no-no for me. Why? Well, for one, I am not sure I will be able to match my monitor to each of their color profiles. It would be a very tedious exercise indeed. For now, and for my business, I will be using the two or three choice custom labs whose print quality and customer service is simply outstanding. For the snap shots that we inevitably create at home, the links above should suffice.

“Photography.Book.Now is a new photography book competition celebrating self-published photography books and the photographers behind them. Photographers are invited to submit their most creative, most innovative, and finest self-published photography books.”

Check it out. Grand prize of $25,000 is at stake.

The photo agency VII is hosting an expanded three-day workshop in downtown Brooklyn on May 16, 17 & 18.

Some of the sharpest shooters for $50. Not bad. Not bad at all. Wan your portfolio shred, um reviewed? That'll be $200. Again, a worthwhile investment.

And, oh, the New York Photo Festival runs May 14-18. So, it's a two-fer.
