Hurrah for Link Spammage
As boxer_the_horse says,’sometimes the internet is great!’ So, in lieu of me actually managing to finish writing a post of my own, let’s have a look at some random internet squishiness.
To begin with, I’m obsessed with the Michael Buble Being Stalked By A Velociraptor blog at the moment. Gosh it’s great; that raptor lurking in the crowd or behind the curtains cracks me up. I just keep randomly going to the site and giggling about it, even when there aren’t any new ones up.
BBC Wildlife is offering a series of free PDFs in the Photo Masterclasses series. Covering a wide variety of topics from birds in flight to photographing wildlife at dusk and dawn, they’re well worth a look.
A couple of weeks ago, I stumbled across the concept of Demand Resistance which describes me so very well, and links in with procrastination, perfectionism and anxiety. I promised to send information on this to a number of people, so here’s a link and here’s another with some good information in the comments.
I have a feeling I may have linked Visual Complexity before, but it’s still beautiful and there’s always something new to see. In fact, one of the things I discovered there this morning was a link to Sourcemap:open supply chains, a tool for researching and sharing where things come from.
Here’s a tribute to New Zealand-born photojournalist Margaret Moth who died earlier this month, and to her fascinating and adventurous life.
And finally, photographers, travellers, architecture enthusiasts and UrbExers, check out this Russian LiveJournaller who has taken a set photos of abandoned churches.
Yes, sometimes the internet is great!
