Since the 1980s, Jeff Bridges has been taking set shots and behind-the-scene photos from all his films with his unique panoramic Widelux camera. His consistency is amazing.

Photographs are a link to the past, and with advances in technology, we’re able to colorize what was once only in black and white. The Dutch website NSMBL recently shared a collection of images that show the “before” and “after” of digital colorization. That alone is interesting, but better yet, the process is revealed in the form of animated GIFs. Vintage monochromatic photos come alive with hues right before our eyes

Hi. We’re Pixite®. We make amazing photo apps for iPhones and iPads. You can read our blog or follow us on twitter.

A pair of ex-Microsoft engineers, Robert Mao and Haitao Li, have launched what they describe as a new social network based around photos and videos with Pixotale, an app that aims to re-imagine long-form storytelling for the mobile era.

These photos of men and women from different walks of life catered to foreign curiosity about the "exotic" Japanese. Most were taken in Beato's studio in Yokohama. Album courtesy of the Smith College Museum of Art.

Carousel is the new gallery from Dropbox that helps you organize, share, and save your photos and videos with friends and family (remember having to individually send every photo in a set over iMessage? Yeah, no more!). It’s an app that holds your photos and videos, and therefore your memories - and its story needs to do it justice.

The bublcam is a 360º camera and software technology that shares everything around you through spherical photos and videos.

Even before Google allowed anybody with an Internet connection to see a satellite view of anyplace on the globe, I loved looking at books with aerial photography. A few favorites that focus on natural and human-made landscapes of the United States are Alex S. MacLean's Designs on the Land: Exploring American from the Air, Dolores Hayden's and photographer Jim Wark's A Field Guide to Sprawl and Alan Berger's Drosscape: Wasting Land in Urban America.

Larry’s work brings us into the harsher realities of the world. His first ground-breaking photo book Tulsa flaunted his secret life of drugs, sex and violence in an era where going steady just meant wearing a pin. Leaving nothing to the imagination, Larry’s photos showcased the truth about just how perverse and depraved a life of excess can become. Larry first started making images to “show you what you couldn’t see…” or perhaps, in the case of his first film Kids, were too afraid to see.

Once assembled, this kit -- developed by community researchers from the Public Laboratory for Open Technology and Science -- enables you to collect your own aerial photos from up to 1000 ft. Using the open source MapKnitter web-based software, you can stitch the resulting images into a web-viewable map -- your own "counter-cartography" Google Maps. Use it to tell a different story from the "official" map -- document contamination (it was used to map the BP oil spill) or wetlands loss, or to record a temporary condition like the Occupy Oakland encampment.

The MIT Open Documentary Lab and the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam’s project, “Moments of Innovation,” documents the process of documentation.  The project spans from the 17,000-year-old cave paintings to modern-day virtual reality.

De Françoise Huguier je connaissais essentiellement les photos de mode, de défilés, de backstages, des photos coupées qui vous dévoilaient d’exceptionnels robes, étoffes, jeux de tissus, de lumières … Des photos de mode à la façon de reportages terrain. Cette idée de capturer des moments de mode comme on capturerait des instants de vie est à mettre à la solde de Christian Caujolle, alors directeur du service photo chez Libé, dans les années 80. C’est lui qui envoya missionner Françoise Huguier dans ce monde de «raffinement et barbarie» … Bref l’alchimie des deux : reportage et mode a donné, et ne cesse de donner corps à de Sublimes photos (Titre d’un de ses livres de photos sur la mode).

Face à la caméra, la jeune guatémaltèque fait le récit bouleversant de son initiation et des crimes les plus horribles dont elle a été complice pour le compte de sa "clique". Une mise à nue poignante et sans concession d’une criminelle en quête de rédemption à laquelle Miquel Dewever-Plana, Isabelle Fougère et Ruben Korenfeld, auteurs du documentaire, ont juste ajouté quelques coupures de journaux, photos et dessins qui permettent de mieux situer le contexte de l’enfer vécu par Alma ainsi que par des centaines de jeunes guatémaltèques protagonistes et victimes de l’une de sociétés les plus violentes au monde.

Réalisé par Miquel Dewever-Plana et Isabelle Fougère, Alma est un portrait en forme de confession d’une jeune femme qui a appartenu pendant 5 ans à l’un des gangs les plus violents du Guatemala. Une histoire déclinée sous forme de web-documentaire, de documentaire, d’application mobile, de livres et d’une exposition de photos et dessins des auteurs.
