There’s a fantastic article by Rob Galbraith on how Sports Illustrated moves pictures from the corners of the field to the cover of the magazine. For any digiphoto hobbyist, it’s a must-read. [Tim Bray ongoing]

"Eleven guys. Eleven versions out of focus"
Thanks to Tim Bray for pointing to this fascinating look behind-the-scenes at how photos end up in Sports Illustrated. Sports Illustrated's photographers shot more than 16,000 photos during the most recent Super Bowl. That's right: 16,000 photos. Editors have to go through each one to find the best one for the cover. The article talks about how they do it and gives lots of pointers to the technology and software they use for this job. Very cool.
Here's the clip from Bray's blog:
