Veteran sports photo columnist Bruce Ely has teamed up this year with Jamie Francis to work together on Beyond the Sideline: High School football from around Oregon. Or 98,386 square miles, one game.
From a post on SportsShooter.com Bruce announced the column and talked a little bit about it.
Fellow photographer Jamie Francis and I have started a new photo column here at the Oregonian. We are traveling around the state to document the high school football season. Some will be video and some will be audio slideshows.

PBS.org’s MediaShift has nice feature article about Alan Taylor and The Big Picture photoblog he started for Boston.com that has become an internet phenomenon (I can’t seem keep posting about it).
As newspapers struggle to figure out how to tell their stories online, many make the mistake of transfering print rules to the web. This results in the small photos and low-quality videos that frustrate so many users.
The Big Picture has created a way to display powerful images in a user-friendly manner.
Thanks to Megan Taylor for writing the piece and to Simon Owens for pointing it out to me.

I particularly liked Julia Robinson’s Our Town photo column this week. Now I’m a little biased because I work with her. But I encourage you to check it out anyway.
