Rev Dan Catt writes, on the Flickr code blog:
Over the weekend we broke the Hundred Million geotagged photos, actually 100,868,302 at last count, mark. If we remember that we passed the 3 billion photos recently and round the figure down a little that means (does calculations on fingers) that around 3.333% of photos have geo [...]
If you follow me on Twitter, you might think that I hate everything about Scotland. Not true.
The only High Dynamic Range (HDR) images I like are the ones whose tags I have to consult to discover that they were so constructed. Every new tool brings a period of wild experimentation after which we either rewrite the rulebook or reassert the old rules. We’re coming out of that experimental period with [...]
I’m heading down to London next week for Apple’s iPhone Tech Talk. I thought it would be fun to repost a set from London from last year.
Flickr now supports embedding their slideshows in external sites, so here goes:
Matt Biddulph is hosting a little soirée afterwards. See you there?

Not having a single answer isn’t all that surprising. In fact, having an easy answer for a period of time when it comes to digital SLRs may have been a fluke of history. … The design decisions made by the camera makers are producing really good results in some areas with compromises [...]
So, finally, I’ve drawn together my thoughts about keywording in Aperture. My problem with keywording has always been more about “how can I make it easy enough that I will actually do it?”, rather than “what should the keywords be?”. I’ll explain my personal taste for both, though.

I was doing some stage photography for our Passion [...]
A while ago, I blogged about my wish-list for Aperture 2. Now that we have the update, I thought I would take a look back:
GPS Metadata Editing
Still waiting for this one!
Ability to lock versions
Nope!
Comments field on Projects
Nope!
Better Handling of externally processed RAW Files
It appears that nothing has changed here since 1.5.
Allow the use of Adobe [...]
I’ve migrated my entire library to Aperture 2, but I’m going to be a bit more careful about migrating to the new RAW 2.0 decoder, particularly with my best images. Here’s my plan of action:
I decided that I was happy to migrate en masse images with no adjustments. Fortunately, Aperture makes this easy. [...]
Aperture 2 can extract metadata about the lens model you used from your image’s EXIF, if your camera writes it. A few little points I discovered about this:
