I was reading a few blogs this morning and came across this video post by McNally. If you are a photographer or photo editor that deals with a lot of us, you will love it. Hilarious!!

• 2. Nikon’s P6000
• 3. Panasonic’s LX3

I have been using a Macbeth Color Checker Chart for quite a while now and just recently stumbled across there new Passport system.

Making a living $0.40 at a time just seems like a failing business model, but when your selling 2000 images a day, I guess you can push through it. After seeing this post on the Strobist I checked out Yuri’s blog and I was pretty impressed with that as well. Check it out here

Very well spoken and clearly on top of his game. I don’t think it’s for me but I will definitely look at stock differently from now on.

The videos are great and the concept of making stock work just captured my attention. Hope you like it.
