I’ve been trying to understand — like all of us I suppose — what is the thing we are going thru with this all embracing pandemic. What is the best course of action, where do I stand in this. Not that my opinion really matters, but in principle: as individuals I think we should stay as informed as possible …
Something totally technical (somebody could say just nerdy) for a change: GoPro came up with their long awaited iPhone/iPad app couple of weeks ago. I couldn’t get it to work (not that I tried that much…); but today I noticed something they posted on Twitter and decided to give it another try. Updated my three GoPro Hero2’s with Cineform Studio …
It’s just an app. And yet, it is our future. Reuters has an interesting iPad app from these games. If you are not familiar with it and have an iPhone/iPad, I suggest you try it out (it’s free). Reuters has c. 50 photographers in these games. Some photography legends (such as Kai Pfaffenbach) — and all of them …
Days just fly by. Covered wrestling the other day, yesterday did kayak for the first time — I will be doing that now for several days towards the end of the week. Finland got the first medal yesterday (windsurfing), but as it was in Weymouth I was not shooting it. Bummer… Friend of mine sent me a real …
Some readers of this blog might remember me getting real excited about the possibilities of the QR-code in our profession. I still think it might be (or might HAVE been) a great transitional technology when we are making the move from the printed paper to other (multimedia capable) platforms. At the time, I tried convince couple of editors that …

Let me just refer you to my last post — and leave it to that. Everything …
Been here now three days: fog, rain, snow… It is a question of choosing your profession, I guess, but I just don’t enjoy being wet all the time — nor does my camera equipment. Plus in this total “grayness” it is hard to make photography worth showing. But yesterday I made something which I consider might be worth sharing. In November during …
(Updated: image gallery 28.1.2011 at noon) Yup, that’s it. That’s what I did today. And what I will do tomorrow. And the day after… Sure, I will be covering some of the other events as well, but there is no question where the focus will be. Not that I am complaining — on the contrary. She is a pure joy to photograph …
Wanna see a portfolio? It is the image on the right. Don’t understand? Read the previous post. I just played around and realized that Photoshelter portfolio folder can be referenced directly AND it is Javascript-based / no flash. IPhone/iPad friendly in other words. Not that this portfolio is up to date or worth seeing in the first place… but …
