Long Exposure Photography is something that I find to be quite interesting. Long exposure photography is a technique that requires a slow shutter speed to capture light and movement.When an image is taken including stationary and moving subjects (for example, a fixed street and moving cars or a camera within a car showing a fixed dash-board and moving scenery) using a slow shutter speed, interesting effects, such as light trails occur. Long exposures are easiest to accomplish in low-light conditions, but can be done in brighter light using neutral density filters or specially designed cameras. Here are some cool long exposure photos.
Pandora has a contest going on right now to find out what does the new American Music look like? This is Pandora's 3rd Annual Poster Contest with the help of Levi's® Company.
The goal was pretty simple: create a poster about Pandora - the rest is up to your imagination. So I thought why the hell not. I wanted to give this a shot and see what my imagination had in store for me. Plus it had cash involved as well but that was not my main motivation.
It will take some time for my profile to get setup and my entry validated. Then you the public will have a chance to vote. Here is how the contest will be judged.

While Sony's OLED TV is little more than a beautiful, 11-inch novelty, LG is swaggering dangerously close to a respectable kitchen TV with this 15-inch AMOLED TV prototype.
OLED displays (organic light emitting diode) are the wave of the future. Even with this economic downturn that we are facing, manufacturers are working hard at providing these elusive screens to consumers. Recently, Samsung announced that they aren't planning on creating large OLED displays yet while Sony jumped on the 3D bandwagon.
LG Electronics plans to make its OLED television available for commercial sale in Korea in November and elsewhere early next year. According to Reuters, LG is also planning to launch a 40-inch OLED television "in the not too distant future." By 2013 production of OLED TVs is predicted to reach 2.33 million units, according to the research company DisplaySearch.
OLED is an emerging flat-panel display technology that uses an organic material in the pixels that emits its own light, so a backlight isn't needed. That helps make the displays thinner and much less power-hungry. OLED screens also handle fast-moving images better and offer richer color reproduction than current LCDs (liquid crystal displays) and PDPs (plasma display panels).
