    Autofocus has been an unfathomably large jump in user experience for photographers, but it doesn't solve all focus problems. Although it is almost always better than manual focus, it has plenty of problems that mean there is skill to mastering the use of autofocus. If you're not familiar with Jan Wegener, he is a master bird photographer and an excellent educator on the subject.

    Even if you have no interest in lighting theories or filmmaking, you will have a good understanding of how light affects a scene or image's mood. But if you want to control the mood with precision, you need to understand the techniques behind it. I have done limited video work, and nothing with human subjects that required much forethought on mood. I do, however, love learning about the behind-the-scenes of cinematic productions as it can be of use in stills photography too.

    Motorsport photography is a niche of the craft that is not only underappreciated — at least in my opinion — but is far more difficult than it gets credit for.

In this behind-the-scenes video, watch how easy it is to setup a high-key, wintery shoot with beautiful results. Perhaps it's just me, but I've always gravitated toward darker, moodier portraiture. It's not that I didn't or don't like high-key, bright portraits, it's just I prefer a bit of a grittier aesthetic.

    Magnum Photos is one of the most recognizable and revered photographic cooperatives in history, and despite being founded back in 1947, it is still going strong today. What has made it special is, unsurprisingly, the photographers. But, what makes them special? Magnum Photos was founded by Robert Capa and Henri Cartier-Bresson, among several others, and that ought to give you a sense of the pedigree involved here.

If there's one thing US politics could benefit from emulating of UK politics — and it might only be one thing — it's a narrower political divide. The GENIUS bill vote earlier had people naming and shaming Republicans who voted "no". If crypto is a one-party issue, sooner or
