Nov 29th, 2012 at 11:00AM: 1. FAAWait - During a creeping weather delay a flight attendant who also works part time as an air traffic controller told me about FAAWait. It's his favorite app. One click and we knew which airports across the country were also experiencing delays, how long the delays were averaging, and what had caused the delays.
2. MyRadar: Recently a fearful flier on board one of my flights spent three ...Postagram app turns your Instagram photos into postcards
Apr 12th, 2011 at 2:30PM: The whole crew here at Gadling loves sending postcards. Heck, we love receiving them, too. Sadly, handwritten notes - including postcards - are nowhere near as popular as they used to be. Why send a postcard from the road when you can instantly Skype or IM with someone? Why send one stock photo when you can upload all of your own pictures? The answer to both questions is the same: sending someone ...National Geographic covers the Japanese tsunami
Mar 18th, 2011 at 8:00AM: It is hard to believe that it has only been a week since the earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, devastating a number of areas in that country. Over that time period, the world has watched as the Japanese people have struggled to get back on their feet, while dealing with the threat of an equally dangerous disaster in the form of a nuclear meltdown. Earlier this week, National Geographic posted ...Travel Photo Tips: What is aperture, and how does it affect my pictures?
Jan 14th, 2011 at 12:30PM:
You've schooled yourself on ISO, and you're starting to get a handle on shutter speed. Next stop? Aperture. This particular setting is exceedingly important when trying to wrap your head around the basics of manually controlling a camera, but it's also one of the more confusing. For starters, not every camera and lens can achieve the same f/stops (in case you couldn't guess, aperture levels are ...The End of an Era: last roll of Kodachrome film has been processed
Dec 31st, 2010 at 8:00AM: Dwayne's Photo, located in Parsons, Kansas, hardly seems like a place where history is made. But that is exactly what happened yesterday when the photo shop processed the final rolls of Kodachrome film, effectively bringing the curtain down on one of the most well known brands in the history of photography.
Kodachrome film was originally introduced by Eastman Kodak back in 1935 and is widely ..."Extreme Exposure" photography exhibit to open in Los Angeles
Sep 26th, 2010 at 8:00AM: A new group photography exhibit is set to open at the Annenberg Space in Los Angeles this October that will spotlight the work of five artists who specialize in shooting environmental, wildlife, and climate imagery.

Jun 9th, 2010 at 5:00PM: Tourists photograph Midtown and Lower Manhattan, while locals click their cameras in the East Village and Chinatown. So, it's clear: tourists and locals don't mix in New York.
Eric Fischer, a computer program, used geotagging data from Flickr and Picasa to plot maps of New York and 71 other cities, using a system he created for determining which shutterbugs are locals and which are from out of ...Win a trip to Dominica by showing off your adventurous spirit
Mar 17th, 2010 at 8:38AM: As far as travel contests go, they don't come much easier than this one. Wend Magazine, Adventure Dominica, and Ahnu footwear are joining forces to send a lucky winner, and their guest, off on a tropical escape to the island paradise of Dominica. They're offering up airfare for two from the U.S. or Canada and five days/four nights stay at the Calibishie Cove Hotel, one of the top eco-lodges on the ...Five reasons to leave your camera at home

Jul 8th, 2009 at 11:30AM: "Sustainability" has been quite the buzzword over the past few years and has been interpreted in many ways across a number of different industries. Now, the Rainforest Alliance wants to see what your interpretation of the word is in the form of a photo, as they launch their second "Photo Sustainability" contest. The contest is co-sponsored with Fujifilm and is open to U.S. residents only, but ...The Disposable Memory Project
Jun 23rd, 2009 at 8:30AM: Disposable cameras have become a very popular way of capturing images in the digital age. They're cheap, take relatively decent photos, and can be found in just about every discount store the world over. But one organization has taken the disposable camera off the guest tables at every wedding, and sent them out into the world to capture images from around the globe. The concept behind the ...Through the Gadling Lens: 7 photography exercises for the brand-new photographer
Mar 5th, 2009 at 11:00AM: I bought my very first SLR camera about 15 years ago. I knew nothing about photography at the time, so I enlisted the aid of a professional-photographer-friend to come with me to help me choose my camera, and, since I had his attention, teach me a few pointers about photography as well. "You'll be buying second-hand," he informed me, "and you will pay nothing less than $500." Gulp. A few days ...Through the Gadling Lens: the best vacation photos from our Gadling pool
Feb 24th, 2009 at 11:00AM: A few months ago, I wrote a post describing the types of shots that I always try to take when I'm traveling -- the kinds of shots which will make a complete album capturing all of the memories and images around my trip. Well, this week, I've culled through the Gadling flickr pool to pick some of my favourite images from some of the wonderful photographers out there, and I thought I'd describe what ...Through the Gadling Lens: shooting inside
Jan 20th, 2009 at 11:00AM: When we think about travel photography, we usually think of images of amazing vistas, vast seascapes, impressive skylines -- you know, the world outside. But the truth is, when we travel we spend a considerable amount of time inside: in museums and cathedrals, local homes, great restaurants, caves, castles ... wherever. And so, while every travel album must have beautiful scenic shots (which we ...Bringing Polaroid back from the dead
Jan 19th, 2009 at 4:00PM: February 18th 2008 was a sad day for photography fans all around the world. It is the day the Polaroid corporation announced the closure of their three instant film production lines. By December, all production came to a halt, and 450 people were without a job. Polaroid produced just enough instant film cartridges to supply fans with their favorite product until Q1 of 2009 and some fanatics ...Sleeping Chinese shares hysterical non-action shots
Dec 8th, 2008 at 4:00PM: Everyone has their own idea of what makes the perfect photograph. For some, it's a city skyline at the magic hour. For others, it's a field of flowers stretching towards the horizon. And for one German expat living in Shanghai, it's candid shots of Chinese citizens sleeping in public.
Sleeping Chinese is the brainchild of a German who simply goes by "Bernd." While in China, he has snapped photos ...Photojournalist Offers Glimpses into the Muslim World
Oct 20th, 2008 at 3:00PM: Veteran photojournalist Alexandra Avakian has spent much of her twenty-plus year career working for prestigious magazines like Time and National Geographic and newspapers like The NY Times. Much of her work has been focused on the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Northern Africa. Stints in Iran, Somalia, Gaza and amongst American Muslims has given her ample opportunity to photograph the adherents ...
