Some interesting things happening in photography last week: A Leica store in Scottland is robbed of over $200K worth of Leica cameras and lenses; Kodak starts shipping EKTACHROME out to retailers; Emulsive.org featured an interview of me and my thoughts on why I shoot film and I saved the best for last; I watched an interesting video, a presentation by photographer, Todd Hido. Todd is a fantastic story teller with his photography… by letting you come up with your own story from the images. He shares his process and his art. Good stuff!
