better be on your list as a photog. The way we shoot, what we shoot and the way we edit should change over the years...we should always look for a way to improve. This includes looking at old photos with "new" eyes. This is a re-edit of a photo taken last year and I wanted to post it so that one year from now it can be re-edited again and I can track my progress:) In retrospect, f/18 was a poor choice as f/8 or f/11 would have worked> The lens used worked fine but more expensive glass yields better star bursts etc. This new version is a different crop of the same photo. (yes I know the photo could use some vertical adjust but that is for next year) EDIT may 07,2012: The real and final version was posted here 500px.com/theartofphotos/stories/36652/growth-and-evolution.

I'm not sure how old this Mountain Dew can is, but it still has some pop in it, like my 7-UP can. This can is a little more dented than the other tho.
Alec Ross, Senior Innovation Advisor for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, preparing for an interview on TVNZ's CloseUp ahead of Project (R)evolution.
The Project [R]evolution Digital and Social Media Conference offers a unique opportunity for business, government and media managers to glean insights, ask questions and mix with some of the leading players in the field.
One of the keynote speakers:
Alec Ross
Senior Advisor for Innovation to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
Alec Ross serves as Senior Advisor for Innovation in the Office of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. In this role, Alec is tasked with maximizing the potential of technology in service of America’s diplomatic and development goals.
Before that appointment, Alec worked on the Obama-Biden Presidential Transition Team and served as Convener for Obama for America's Technology, Media & Telecommunications Policy Committee.
In 2000, Alec Ross and three colleagues co-founded One Economy, a global non-profit that uses innovative approaches to deliver the power of technology and information about education, jobs, health care and other vital issues to low-income people. During his eight years at One Economy, it grew from a team of four people working in a basement to the world's largest digital divide organization, with programs on four continents.
Power to every citizen
To me “digital revolution” can be defined as the massive shift in power that has taken place from hierarchies to citizens and networks of citizens as a result of powerful digital technologies.
What this means in practical terms is that everyday citizens have power today that they did not have as recently as five years ago. Anybody with a smart phone now has the kind of global reach that was once reserved for governments and large media companies. This shifting power has disrupted commerce, communication and governance.
I see this “digital revolution” as being overwhelmingly positive. Some of the disruption it has caused (and will cause in the future) is negative, but this has been far outweighed by the ability of people to connect and engage with the world and with the marketplace in ways that were previously unimaginable. I think about my own experience as a school teacher in an impoverished community. When I was a teacher, the only educational resource my students had beyond my own knowledge were a set of tattered, 30-year old textbooks. Today, that same classroom is equipped with an internet connection that can deliver world-class educational resources directly to the students that most need them. While there is no replacement for a good teacher, our students should not have to suffer with out-of-date and substandard educational resources. With the digital revolution, that no longer needs to be the case.
Another Keynote speaker:

Abstract: Social media and the newsroom: the Revolution of the Newsroom
Without question, social media has changed the pace of news; how and where it breaks and who breaks it. How does this change our trust in media organisations, journalists as individuals and news-makers? As we remove the layer of authority provided by news organisations, by placing the news directly in the hands of journalists on social media, how do -- or should -- our readers approach the news? This talk will discuss tools for verifying news through social media, cases of misinformation caused by the rapid nature of breaking news on social and the ethical questions involved in reporting in this new age.
Governor Hogan Visits Evolution Brewing by Joe Andrucyk at Evolution Craft Brewing Co. & Public House, 201 E Vine St, Salisbury, MD 21801
So I was creating some pirate minifigs today and started noticing a lot of similarities between old and new torsos. Just like LEGO updated the old torsos. I've created this image with some help of bricklink photo's. So what's going on? Did LEGO update the old torsos? Are the new torsos merely inspired by the old ones? Is it just a coinsidense? Am I just seeing what I want to see? What is your opinion about this! Let me know!
Mt. Mendel, Mt. Darwin and The Hermit above McClure Meadow, Kings Canyon National Park, California.
Yet another in my JMT series. Please view my other JMT images in my JMT set.
This is a three-exposure, shutter bracket HDR composite. Each individual image made with a Nikon D7000 and Tokina 11-16mm.
This will be my last offering from McClure Meadow ... for a while.
This is the view presented of the northern section of the Evolution Basin as seen from McClure Meadow. The peak at the left is Mt. Mendel (13710'), the pointy peak right of photo center under the rightmost cloud is Mt. Darwin (13,831') and the dome is The Hermit (12,328').
