Umpa is giving us the MacBook Pro of his dreams, it comes in jet-black Aluminum and I lOVE it!!
Glass touch pad, SuperDrive, iSight… can’t ask for much more! Too bad it’s just a concept…
This is not his first shot at creating Apple mockups, he’s got a 3G & 4G iPod Nano concept and of course an iPhone Nano concept.
Maybe Apple will be paying attention…

You probably all know RED ONE, the super high definition video camera by RED.
“The primary advantage to RED is REDCODE. Compressed RAW at over 23.976 fps. This is a core invention of RED that’s full effects have not been seen yet.
The secondary advantage of RED is our sensor program. Some could argue that this is number one.
Mysterium “Monstro” is a sensor program that pushes the envelope past anything on the horizon. It will go into Epic, and another camera aimed squarely at the DSLR market. Epic ships with Mysterium-X and has a free upgrade to Monstro.
Scarlet has been talked about extensively. It is a 3K, 120fps camera with a built-in 8X zoom that starts at 28mm (full frame still 35mm) wide angle. The T-stop will be “at least” as published.
We have a couple of other “tricks up our sleeves”. The important message is that we are just getting started.
Jim”
The “Mysterium Monstro” sensor is very much the product of both great strategy and great marketing! It literally translates “Mysterious Monster“
Moving to the DSLR market is a good diversification for RED. With a line of amazing products (lot’s of them are still to come tho), one can imagine the photo camera that will come out sometimes in the near future will be an amazing product (or vaporware).
So wait and see…

The infamous Adobe Photoshop Express (PSX), is still in “beta”, will rebranded simply as Photoshop.com
With the rebranding in September will come a new upload feature for smartphones including the iPhone…
“The Adobe Photoshop.com Mobile app won’t allow users to edit photos directly on their smartphones, but will allow users to upload their photos directly to their Photoshop.com accounts from their phones directly after the photos have been taken. “
Clearly, Adobe wants a piece of the big Flickr cake and the online photo gallery business!
Let’s hope they will strike a deal with an amazing online printing/book publishing company (like Blurp) to integrate a book printing module both in PSX and in Lightroom 2!
Apple already offers such module in Aperture 2.0 and I have to say, I can’t wait for LR2 to have such a cool feature…
Wait and see, but they have a long road ahead of them!

Motion blur is an effect you will see in photographs of scenes where objects are moving. It is mostly noticeable when the exposure is long, or if objects in the scene are moving rapidly.
Smashing Magazine compiled 45 beautiful examples of motion blur in photography.
“This showcase isn’t supposed to be the ultimate and complete selection of motion blur images — it is supposed to provide you with some inspiration of what can be done with motion blur.
All pictures are linked to the author’s pages. You may want to explore further works of the photographers we’ve featured below.”
