Suddenly everyone decided to start selling lenses from disposable cameras packaged for mirorless cameras?

Há exatamente cinco anos o Miguel A. Lopes lançava o desafio num grupo de WhatsApp, com dezenas e dezenas de fotógrafos, e esta foto do Gonçalo Borges Dias abria o EverydayCovid. Passado uns dias começavam as sessões de Zoom diárias para ir escolhendo o material que chegava (juntamente com o Ângelo Lucas, André Dias Nobre, Gonçalo Delgado, Rui Miguel Pedrosa e Rui Soares), depois o livro, as exposições e por aí fora. Muita coisa feita por imensa gente talentosa. Parece que foi ontem, mas ao mesmo tempo noutra vida.

A Madalena Boto mais uma vez a fazer a fazer magia, agora a documentar vida selvagem em plena Lisboa.

…passa na RTP em breve!

Five people are sitting on stage in front of a screen displaying a sailboat with the text "LISBOA OUTRAS FORMAS DE VIDA."

Elevator selfie, just because…

A person with a beard and a cap is taking a selfie in an elevator while holding a phone and carrying a camera.

Regarding Foto, and other social networks.

Foto is cool and clean, all that we wanted Instagram to be, but the issue is, in many ways, is just like all the others: it’s privately owned, centralized, closed, probably will be monetized at some point, and, as much as its founders are well intended, its roadmap will be decided by a handful of people. At some point, by the shareholders. Musk is right at one thing: these services are becoming the global, digital public square. And that’s why they need to evolve into something that’s open, decentralized and based on standards. And Foto doesn’t seem to be any of that.

O Pedro Nuno Santos a dizer que eleições no dia 11 seria má ideia porque há muita gente a ir a Fátima, mas nós sabemos que é por ser fim-de-semana de derby. 😉

Fuel for today!

A white cup filled with dark coffee sits on a matching saucer.

Funny how photos allow you consolidate your memories. Not just the actual thing you photographed, that’s a no brainer, but everything around it: what you were doing, what you were eating, what you were listening, who you were with. As if the act of clicking also snapshots the brain.

Agora vêm os directos em série da assembleia da República…

All wrapped up for today… Work, football, even politics. Time to go back to the photos.

Agora sim, já não temos governo. Estava mesmo tudo a ver o Benfica!

Ainda temos governo? Ou estava tudo a ver o Benfica?

Vamos lá mudar de canal…

A rever os golos do Barça, o Yamal andou mesmo soltinho soltinho por ali…

Na dúvida se regresso para a segunda parte deste Benfica… Tenho 15 minutos para decidir.

The photographer that took the photo that might have won the election for Trump, or at least helped a lot, is no longer able to cover Trump. Let that sink in…

What a good flashback of Nepal from my mate João Lage! I clearly remember some of these coffee breaks.
