Contact sheets evolved alongside 35-millimeter film as a convenient way to review small negatives: one roll of 35-millimeter film fits neatly onto an 8-by-10-inch sheet of paper. The process of reviewing a contact sheet typically involved a loupe and a red grease pencil – and often some apprehension. With a single contact sheet, a photographer could assess all the decisions and hesitations, steps and missteps that went into taking a photo.At the link in our bio, take a glimpse at a selection of contact sheets from The Times’s photo archive and learn more about the choices that went into pressing the shutter.

Congratulations, Doug Mills on winning the Pulitzer Prize! Sometimes you just know a historic image when you see it. This image has certainly become just that!

My brain literally cannot comprehend all of the bad stuff that just happened today so instead: scholastic book fair now has online wallets that you can use for your kiddos at the book fair- but also, you can donate to “share the fair” so others w/o can get books.
