- “This is the greatest photo you will see today,” notes Mike Monteiro. Sounds right to me.

Yeah, plenoptic camera lenses might SEEM like cool technology but it’s really just nonexistent until it appears on an iPhone, then it will be OMG! PLENOPTIC LENSES ARE THE COOLEST CUTTING EDGE TECHNOGY EVER OMG! IT’S APPLE MAGIC OMG!
What a visceral and stunning photo essay. Thank you for posting a link to it. Just incredible.

New addition to Lightroom suggestions. I would love to see a white balance adjustment brush option. For example say you shot a mixed light living room and want to correct the florescent lit area while the rest is clean light.
