I just came across this  - Engadget.com is looking for a regular (paid!) contributor to write about digital cameras. I figured someone here might be interested.

We're accepting submissions for our third issue until May 3. You're all fabulous and we hope you consider contributing.

Clay has started a new online photozine called Snaps Magazine. The first issue has the theme of dogs, so flood him with shots of your pooch (I know you might have one or two, Bob!)

Anyone who's ever been to Montreal can't fail to notice Mont-Royal, a large forested mountain in the middle of the city, that is capped by a 98 foot high illuminated cross. Following the death of John Paul II, this normally white cross has changed its color to purple.

If any of you are posting images that are related to the events taking place in the Vatican, could you please post your links in the comments? For example, I'd love to see the work from the Italian photobloggers who may have images from the site that don't really make it in the regular press.

The 2005 Photobloggies are here!  Check them out and tell us what you think.

New York City was hit with a blizzard this weekend (about a foot of snow, plus drifts from the wind), and many of the local photobloggers have different takes. Quite often you see different photographers' styles — as well as different habitats, so this kind of "event" is a rare opportunity to see the variety.

Here are a number of links... (Sit back with a mug of joe and some Sibelius, or maybe Schubert's "Winterreise" on)...
