This could be the coolest video you'll see today. This stop motion video was created from paring down 25,000 images to 4,500 images captured over 5 days and 2 nights. The team used tilt-shift photography on a Cannon 55OD to get the miniaturized perspective.

Despite the flowers and tasty gelatin, hospitals don't generally top of the list of favorite destinations. But hospitals are using virtual tour technology to reach out to patients and diffuse the unease for when the time for a visit comes.
Rex hopes to prove that hospitals don't have to be a drag with …well… a click and drag experience.
If you want to see what a smartphone camera can do check out photojournalist Travis Long's gallery of iPhone 4 images the State Fair. He used Hipstamatic for iPhone, an application that simulates the look of vintage and exotic films.
I should have done this earlier in the year, but I put together a gallery of lightning images for you shutterbugs. Keep an eye on the weather and have have a tripod handy. Clouds and landmarks can add dramatic interest, but being in the right place at the right time is important. Getting too close to lightning is not only dangerous, but often does not help the photo.

It took over 350,000 Post-its and the creative labor of 25 animators to make this stop motion video on the facade of the Galeria Melissa, in São Paulo, Brazil. Visitors left more than 30,000 messages on the notes.
Made from billet aluminum, the LockCircle is expensive enough to make you keep better track of that elusive body cap. It is gorgeous and does appear to be more ergonomic with some actual surface to grip at the expense of a little added bulk.

This four minutes of photo gear rolled and tumbled throughout several rooms is pretty cool. The camera geek in me tried to identify each component of the creation.
I had fun photographing this little guy. I have not had time to research and identify him yet, but I thought it was cool and wanted to share.
I used my Canon SD 770 IS which is a great pocketable point and shoot. Even so it mostly resides in my pack. I used its macro mode and adjusted the exposure compensation. The subject was fairly patient not moving too much. Good thing because it took a few tries to get the eyes in focus challenged by me hand-holding it and the bug's slight motions.
