The first ever Youth Olympics Games wraps up on August 26th in Singapore and, from the looks of things, it was a hotbed of athletic ability. To celebrate the inaugural game, the International Olympics Committee sponsored a Youth Olympics Photographer Challenge for the budding photographer who could share what they thought captured the spirit of the Olympics. The winner was Billy Rowlinson from the UK and his winning entry is below. Billy’s in Singapore right now covering the end of the games. Congratulations Billy!

Anyone out in the British Columbia area make it to the Abbotsford Air Show recently? They had a rare bird- one of two airworthy Avro Lancasters participate, as well as the Snow Birds, the Thunderbirds and lots of other cool aircraft. If you went, there’s a group you can add them to. You can also search for more.

Rolling shutter is a method of image acquisition in which each frame is recorded not from a snapshot of a single point in time, but rather by scanning across the frame either vertically or horizontally. In other words, not all parts of the image are recorded at exactly the same time.

If you have an iPhone, or any other device with a rolling shutter, try out this technique yourself. More inspiration can be found in our search.
