If you’ve been following this blog for a while, you might’ve noticed that sometimes, on the rare occasions that I do post, I don’t strictly post about photography. Instead, I post code or lamentations over lost family members or other random things. Since this is a photoblog, I’ve decided that...
Beyond photography, I enjoy other pursuits. Such as design. And science fiction. So I was pleased a few years ago when I came across Dave Addey’s awesome site Typeset in the Future. It’s an exploration of the use of typefaces in iconic science fiction movies that’s completely-engrossing. So I’m somewhat...

Last year, Kien Lam did what many of us dream of doing—he quit his job in San Francisco, packed his bags and camera and headed out on a ’round the world trip. This is the video he put together of that long journey.
