Newsletter provides a link to "100 Meters," a study that is only one of a number of ambitious projects by photographer <a href="http://www.simonhoegsberg.com/" target="_blank">Simon Hogsberg</a>, whose website is worth a visit - as is Photojojo! itself: an eccentric photography web site that offers the above referenced Newsletter, a Forum, and the <a href="http://photojojo.com/store/" target="_blank">Photojojo Store</a>.&nbsp; The latter sells a handful of items ranging from an Inflatable Photo Frame and a Bottle Cap Tripod (seriously!), to Eye-Fi Wireless Memory Cards. The Newsletter appears to mainly link to other sites; beyond the Hogsberg link, recent features include such fun projects as how to "Make a DIY Fisheye Lens from a Peephole and Soda Can," and "Light Painting with Moth Trails!"</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
