a) neat: paraholographics/3D.
b) don't most people take their pictures at infinite focus anyways ? |

I heard about the Lytro camera months ago but assumed it
was vaporware due to the lack of technical explanantion.
Looks like I was wrong. |

Outside the specific theme of this post, the practice is very
baked and is a service commonly offered by your better
breed of bodyguards and personal security agencies. I
performed this service precisely once, by proxy, for the
former governor of Maine, when he visited a site secured
by the well-known security firm for which I worked a
couple of years ago. My normal duty was uniformed
patrol/access
control (i.e. the security guard at the gate who checks your
credentials), but for one extremely fun day I got to be a
plainclothes professional stalker. I was chosen for this role
based on my supervisor's (favorable) evaluation of me as a
devious bastard. |

The Lytro is real and it is awesome; a good friend of mine
who is a photog's assistant brought one up to the valley and
spent a day playing it across the scenic vistas. The pics are
superb, but as yet unpublished. If and when they're
available online I'll link to them. |
