Well, occassionally a new interesting camera comes along in the long line of new digital cameras being announced every year.

21. July 2009
A few days ago I posted one of my first infrared black and white images and I thought I would share another image from the same outing (click the thumbnail on the left to view image in full size) in this little quick post. I like this image because it has an almost ‘other worldly’ [...]
