Photos from NASA
Pretty much all of the media produced by NASA is public domain. That means you can do almost anything you want with the wealth of images available at NASA Images. In other news, efforts are being made to recover high-resolution images from the Lunar Orbiter program that was tasked with mapping the lunar surface before the Apollo missions. The ongoing recovery program is based out of an abandoned McDonald’s.

A six month exposure
A six month exposure of the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol, was taken by Justin Quinnell, using a pinhole camera strapped to a telephone pole. The photograph resembles a painting, and shows the arc of the sun from winter solstice to summer. Prints are available, as well as those from a few other long exposures.
Abandoned London
Abandoned London features Christmas day photographs of England’s largest city. Having walked around most of these places, I have to admit that it’s a little eerie seeing them with so few people.
