  1. During the months of July and August anyone visiting the the London Eye will also have the opportunity to look at the winning entries from the 2005 International Travel Photographer of the Year competition.
  2. Google is currently testing a new version of its photo-management app Picasa in private beta that will let users post photo albums on the web via an integrated, Google-hosted service. You can learn some more about the service or put yourself on the beta waiting list at the Picasa Web site. See DownLoad Squad for details.
  3. Wired News is running an interesting piece about Flickr’s policy which excludes images from being displayed in public areas of the site or global search results if more than half of the uploader’s images are “non-photographic images.” The rationale seems to be that when people come to Flickr they’re
    looking for photos, not screenshots or other images. (also via Download Squad)
  4. Flock is now in beta mode. Lots of new features for photo management, feed-reading, search, favorites, and blogging. Take a look at the Flock blog for lots of juicy details, or hit the download site to grab Flock for Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux.
  5. Superb stop-motion tour of the Pyrimids over on Yakkr.com. (found via Gadling)
  6. Don’t know quite why you would want to but the Digital Photography School shows how to get your images to look like Lomo photos. A Lomo is a Russian manufactured camera. It is poorly made and known for its less than perfect image quality.
