Photographic Miscellaney

  • Photographer Filip Dujardin challenges the viewer with some bizarre buildings, "combin[ing] photographs of parts of buildings into new, fictional, architectonic structures." [Via]
  • Photojojo offers up the very cool bottle cap tripod for $10. (On a somewhat related note, David Pogue points out "It turns out that the threads at the top of just about any lamp--the place where the lampshade screws on--are precisely the same diameter as a tripod mount! In a pinch, you can whip off the lampshade, screw on the camera, and presto: You've got a rock-steady indoor tripod.") They also offer a rather nifty doodle frame.

The thread pitch on top of a standard lamp harp is 1/4-27. The thread pitch on the bottom of most cameras is 1/4-20. I'm sure "close" works -- just depends on how much you invested in the camera.
