Catching Zebra is edited by Andy Taylor.

It is a collection of anything I think is worth sharing. Mainly related to design, photography, tech and internet funnies. I post my own photography to a photolog called Shots.

I designed this Tumblr theme.
If you like it you can install it here.

Please direct questions about the theme to the Catching Elephant Tumblr. Sorry but I just won't answer them here.

I put off watching this yesterday thinking ‘how good can it be’. Watch it, wow.

Hong Kong and Macau in the 50’s
Phil Roeder is scanning his dad’s photos from his time in the air force.

During the first half of the 1950s, my father served in the U.S. Air Force and for part of that time was based in Asia, primarily on Okinawa. He had the opportunity to travel around much of the region and these photos (with a few exceptions that include him) are ones he took of the places he visited: villages on Okinawa along with Hong Kong, Manila and Macau.

Dunk - The Dribbble feed viewer
The first Dribbble iPhone app is out and it’s really good. Unfortunately all the shots look pixelated on the iPhone 4 though. And it would be nice to be able to login and like/comment from within the app.

Could you recommend me themes like yours, you like or something
Yours is beautiful but so bluish and yay.

By the way, amazing blog, so interesting :)

Hey, I can’t tell you what you like.

But I think the New Zealanders are making the best stuff. Check out Hayden Hunter, Matthew Buchannan, Jarred Bishop and Mike Harding.

iPhone 4 camera is pretty awesome.

Holga Digtal Camera concept by Saikat Biswas
Interesting concept and very well executed. But don’t we all have phones in our pockets that can simulate a toy camera?

I guarantee it’ll get stuck in your head.

Wedding Photo Booth
I got married a couple of weeks ago and had a ‘photo booth’.
It was a pretty simple setup. Nikon D90 on a tripod with a SB-900 strobe on camera. The strobe had a globe diffuser and the camera was teathered to a laptop using the free Sofortbild mac software.
The camera was set to three second timer and a Nikon IR remote trigger was used to fire it. The laptop and software were used to show the last photo taken.
We got heaps of amazing shots. Some of the best are public on Flickr. Couldn’t recommend it more to anyone having a big party or event.

Been away on my honeymoon for a couple of weeks. Seems my blog turned two while I was on holiday.
