Steve Jobs must be hopping mad that Gizmodo seems to have gotten its paws on the next iPhone and shown it online for the whole world to see. Apple has sued and put sites out of business for less than that. It looks cool, though.
The Art of Building Photo Competition is an international showcase for the very best digital photography of the built environment and is open to both professional and amateur photographers aged 18 and above.
The photo competition is run by the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) and celebrates the creativity of the industry, the passion of the people who work within it, and the impact their work has on those who make use of the final construction.
Entrants are encouraged to capture the built environment in a way not seen before, to inspire others and to challenge people’s perceptions. The imagery should be original and thought provoking. The competition is free to enter.
The overall winner of the competition wins a £500 cash prize and national and international recognition.
Deadline: May 31st 2010
Enter the competition at: The Art of Building.

When photographer Hans Nyberg was asked by Debmark’s royal family to photograph the guests assembled at a gala in the Queen’s honour at the Royal Danish Theatre in Copenhagen, he had no choice but to take a 187° panorama.

Imaging getting into your car of the future, telling it where you want to go, and it uses GPS to navigate to your destination. It is, of course, battery-operated so is environmentally friendly. While it’s getting you to your destination, you can spend the time surfing the Internet, listening to music, watching a video or working on that presentation you’ll be giving.
