- Chuck Kimmerle makes masterful black and white imagery. His Deadwoods series is particularly striking. [Via]
- Speaking of striking (oh tortured segues, you’re the best!), here’s some brilliant ad placement: a rugby jersey promoting facial reconstructive surgery . On another rugby-related note, check out this 1928 image from Martin Munkácsi.
- Joergen Geerds lights up the Big Apple in Luminous New York.
- A Chris Walken in a blimp is nowhere to be seen, but I still enjoy these views from the top of the Bay Bridge. Dizzlying heights are one thing, but I dig the control room (not to mention the frank graffiti). [Via]
- Christopher Scholl has made a list of the 10 best Firefox extensions for photographers, enabling everything from slideshows to uploading to geotagging.
- The Photoshop Blog features some very cool (d’oh) images of deep blue ice. For more iced goodness, see Jeff Schewe’s Antarctica gallery.

Could we have a little less of the same links and content that have already appeared on most websites and more of the great Adobe insights? Thanks.
[No, though I’m glad you like the Adobe-specific stuff. As for the rest, I share what I find interesting and inspiring, and others seem to like it. –J.].
“on another rugby-related note” isn’t rugby, it’s the beautiful game, back when keepers didn’t need gloves. Incidentally, it was football that did for Munkácsi, it seems.
[Gah! Thanks for the info. Shows you how much most of us Americans follow either sport (though I did play fútbol back in the day). –J.]
one of the best NYC night photographers is here: http://www.overshadowed.com
[Groovy; I’ll check it out. Thanks. –J.]
John, absolutely keep up the good work. I rely on you for what’s what in the world every day. You’re inspiring, and better than the New York Times (well almost better). I would have to set aside 3 hours a day to get what you give in your dailies.
[Solid–thanks, Alex. –J.]

Some people have the ability to “filter” the web and post what they find interesting, and I think John is one of those.
I could never do it, I basically browse the same sites everyday unless I’m doing some research.
I find the content amazing and eclectic. It is just as relevant and bleeding edge, such as metadata editing or the discussion as to whether the web should be color managed or not, as it is poetic and ludic.
I have to stop my self from posting “great links !!!” every day, because of the quality and abundance of them, or I would end up sounding redundant and apple-polisher.
[Aw, shucks; thanks, Pedro! –J.]
I don’t think your entries are redundant really, I read ever day because I know there will be something new and different. Plus, I still really find it totally cool that John is on the team that makes arguably the best photo editing package out there! I know this sounds weird, but I feel like I “know” an Adobe employee- heh
