My friend Jeff's been hiking again. Great shot above Canyon Lake east of Phoenix. I've biked that road in the background a few times -- it is an absolutely incredible area. Take a look if you've never seen some of the areas within an hour of Phoenix.

How to make a life poster with iPhoto. Great concept. See Mike's final poster here. Via Subtraction.

On a Foggy Night. Striking photo. From the very capable lens of Jeff Werner.

If you are a Windows user, Google released its free photo manager Picasa 2 today. This should be a handy tool, assuming Google hasn't mucked it up. Someday I'll match it up against iPhoto to see if there is any comparison. Of course Flickr is a fun platform independent option as well. Via my favorite place to debate the nuances of the mundane: Metafilter.
