Car Photography For Dummies

In my current role I've found myself having to take hundreds of photographs of various cars. I like to think I take a semi-decent photo but when someone writes up a simple list of things to check and do to get great results you'd be mad not to look into it.

Richard Truesdell at Automotive Traveler has done just that with this very helpful article on how to take great car photos. He uses a recent shoot he did of a 1968 Ford Mustang California Special to talk the reader through the process.

Simple things like the time of day and location you take the photos can make a boring photo into a thing of beauty.

Do yourself a favour and go read the article.

Microsoft, Then and Now

You've probably seen the uber nerdy photos of Bill Gates and Co from way back in the late 70s. Well the original founders have gotten together to commemorate 30 years in the biz and to give BillG a pat on the back as he makes his elongated exit from the company he helped start by (sort of) reproducing the photo you see here.

Bob Wallace is the only person missing from the photo due to him dying in 2002.
