If you’re ever in New York City, and want to see a really cool museum, check out the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA). The Met is a more classic old school type museum (still amazing to see as well), where the MOMA has a more modern flare with a wide range of exhibits. Here is my favorite painting, Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh. The first time I saw it at the MOMA, I was a teenager on a class field trip. I was amazed by the fact that this image which I had seen in my history and art books was sitting there right before my eyes. Not a print, but the original. I was also surprised that it was so small. I had assumed it would have been much larger than it actually is. Here is a high-resolution stock photo of Vincent Van Gogh’s famous Starry Night painting from my most recent trip into the city.
Tyra Banks is not only one of the world’s greatest supermodels and talk show hosts, but she can also handle her own with a Hasselblad! You can see her on her show America’s Next Top Model (ANTM) frequently shooting some of the contestants. Now does she know how to set everything up in the camera settings and lighting? Who knows, and who cares – she probably just has to worry about pointing and shooting. Being around the modeling business for so many years, she has probably absorbed so much photographic knowledge that it just comes naturally to her. Think about it, don’t most actors usually move towards directing later in their careers? It seems to be a common trend in models and actors.
Vanessa Hudgens told 
Yes sir, Mr. Price is Right himself also shoots sports! This surprized me a lot. I’ve always liked Drew Carey as an actor/comedian, now I like him even more. Drew shoots for the U.S. National soccer team on occasion, and he sells his images under the pseudonym “Brooks Parkenridge”.
We all know Jerry as the fantastic film and tv producer, but he actually started out as a photographer. His interest in film got him to where he is today, but that’s not to say that the art of photography didn’t help him along on his career path.
You might be sick of hearing about Brangelina gossip on shows like TMZ and Extra, but here is an interesting tidbit. This dude is so much of a photo geek that it has been said that he drives his wife Angelina Jolie insane with it. Angelina said her hubby Brad Pitt “has become obsessed with photography and ruminates for hours on how to improve his art”. Supposedly Brad really geeks out and studies everything about the art and science of photography and imaging. Hey, I have to give him some credit. He isn’t pulling the “rich doctor” syndrome. You know, when highly wealth people buy a Canon 1ds MkIII even though they have no clue what they’re doing with it. In that case, it’s like they’re walking around with $8000 necklaces. Brad seems like the type that really geeks out, and for that I have to give him props. You can read more about his obsession
