Photographing big cats isn’t easy. An image of a tiger can take months of planning, and National Geographic photographer Steve Winter knows that better than most. Drawing on decades of experience with jaguars, tigers, lions, and other big cats, he shares some techniques. 🔗 on.natgeo.com/s3Qqlw

We've been getting a lot of questions lately about how the Internet Archive digitizes books. The short answer: page by page, by hand. You may remember our viral 2021 video of Eliza Zhang scanning a book. That's still how we do it. Meet Eliza, and learn how we scan books: blog.archive.org/2021/02/09/…
