Dealing with the huge volume of photos involves setting up totally new infrastructure, which is planned long in advance of the games.
For Getty, the technical planning started in a meeting with Olympics officials four years ago, during the winter games in Vancouver. The AP toured the Sochi grounds scouting for shooting positions a full two years ago. Both agencies had teams on the ground over a month ago laying ethernet cable. For its part, Getty set up a single network connecting the 11 Olympic venues. Mainardis estimates that Getty lay down some 22 kilometers of ethernet cable so that most of its 37 photographers could be directly wired in, assuming they're in what Mainardis calls "safe" positions.
In a few trickier "gamble" shooting positions, such as some on the Alpine course, the spots are too remote to run cable all the way down the mountain, in which case the photographers are connected wirelessly to a nearby base station that's plugged into the network. Somehow, photographers have to capture the exact fraction of a moment.
From the migrant crisis in Europe to race riots in the United States, has been a turbulent year. Our editorial teams have been at the center of the news. 「Year in Focus Gallery」 12月18日～21日に限定開催！ NeuroAI by NTT dataが選ぶ「今年の1枚」や、ゲッティイメージズが選ぶ「今年の1枚」、 年を象徴 する.
It's worth taking a moment to admire the hardcore Olympic photographers who wake up long before sunrise in some cases to ski out to their locations. As you can see in the image below, Getty photogs travel with a mixture of Canon and Nikon cameras bodies, while the AP is an entirely Canon shop.
Without fail, these photographers are using either Canon 1Ds or Nikon D4s. Unlike most disciplines where you could get away with something other than flagship DSLRs, sports photography requires the fps speed that you get at the top of the line. That's a lot of gear. The second a photographer fires the shutter on a camera, the resulting image—a high quality JPEG, not an uncompressed RAW file—is transported by ethernet to Getty's central editing office in about 1.
There, a team of three editors processes the photo. The first selects the best image and crops it for composition; the second editor color corrects; and the third adds metadata. The whole editing process is done in seconds. Once the last editor is done, the image is blasted to the world. With some minor variations, the AP process is very similar.
Paquin says he prefers to have editors on site at each of the venues so they can give photographers notes and really get to know what they're looking for. But the end result is the same: Photos delivered to clients at an average clip of three minutes or less. The whole process leaves very little room open for error. Here we see his rig with two Canon and Nikon bodies. The action happens too fast for photographers to switch lenses so every necessary focal length is ready to go with its own body. Take any two photos from the AP and Getty in the middle of the competition, and they'll looks fairly similar.
Everybody is a pro, so when Shaun White botches his landing, everybody gets the photo. Still, while agencies like the AP and Getty are competitors in name, they're serving different clientele, and that plays out in how they shoot the games. The former is primarily serving news outlets all over the world, and according to Paquin, the goal is to ensure that it can provide customers in each country with a usable image of each of its local superstars.
Getty Images, on the other hand, isn't just serving editorial customers, but also commercial clients. Its biggest client of all is the International Olympic Committee, for which it's the official agency. Getty is charged with documenting every last moment of the Olympics with sleek work advancing the goals of the IOC, which are of course, making the Olympics look a really cool spectacle that's worth the money.

Shelter, for now, is the five-bedroom rental with its borrowed furniture that she originally intended as a temporary place while she and Woods worked on their marriage. In those months she motored through the business of motherhood and generally stayed busy as a way of coping.
The year-old nanny, Marie who, like the part-time housekeeper, moved with Nordegren in the split , taught her and the children to bake, and they all produced endless batches of cupcakes. In what had been a game room, Nordegren turned the wet bar into a diaper-changing station and removed the pool table to make room for dance parties to the Pippi Longstocking soundtrack. Only at night, before Sam inevitably wandered into her bed, would Nordegren allow herself to be alone with an anguish that caused insomnia and weight loss. In the days before the divorce was final, she began to lose her hair, her body surrendering to the stress where her spirit would not.
I wish I could bring up my emotions more at the time, but it usually comes afterward. After months of difficult work on the divorce, she now teases and plays practical jokes on her Richmond, Va. I also see this as an opportunity to thank everyone who has reached out to me. I have felt tremendous support from family, friends and people I never met, and I want them to know that every encouraging letter, e-mail, text message or phone call has been a tremendous help. I have no intention of addressing these matters again after this interview. I hope that the kids and I will get the privacy we need to adjust to our new situation.
As anyone who has gone through a divorce knows, it is never easy. Every day is a little easier than the one before, but I still have a lot of healing to do. I have been through stages of disbelief and shock, to anger and ultimately grief over the loss of the family I so badly wanted for my children. I have learned a lot about myself, about the world and about people around me. Even though I have been as disappointed as I have ever been, as sad as I have ever been and as angry as I have ever been, I also feel stronger than I ever have.
I have confidence in my beliefs, my decisions and myself. What comes to mind first is all the speculation that I had something to do with the car crash or that I had somehow used any kind of violence on Tiger. This was one of the things I had the hardest time with people thinking. There was never any violence inside or outside our home. The speculation that I would have used a golf club to hit him is just truly ridiculous. I did everything I could to get him out of the locked car.
To think anything else is absolutely wrong. I did some modeling when I was younger. It is flattering to be called a model, but I hardly think a few shoots in my teenage years make me a model. It is common in Europe to take a year or two off after gymnasiet [high school] to travel or go overseas to learn another language before you continue your studies.
My initial plan was to go to Barcelona for a year to continue my Spanish studies, but I met Mia and came with them to the States to help them with their then three children. My intent was to go back to Sweden after a year and start my psychology studies. They were both great experiences. I grew up in a little town called Vaxholm outside Stockholm. I always loved sports and was an avid soccer player throughout my childhood. As a kid I dreamed of becoming a soccer professional and journalist like my father because I love to write.
I knew after high school that I wanted to study psychology.

Retrieved February 10, Alongside a refreshed creative, the campaign includes a new partnership with GQ, a much bigger focus on influencers and a TV ad that has been produced in-house for the first time. Smart cities A smart city does not have to become a surveillance city, but it requires a strong public commitment to privacy rights. Halter tops with thin, string-like straps were also common.
I always loved children and I wanted to study something that could combine the two. After my year as a nanny, I planned to go back to Sweden. I was 21 when I met Tiger. How did growing up a twin and as the daughter of two prominent parents — your mother a government official, your father a journalist — shape you?
I have huge respect for both of my parents. They gave me a base of trust, loyalty and love that I will always have and want to pass on to my children. Before my parents split up in , they took my older brother Axel, my sister and me everywhere. My brother is 13 months older than my sister and me, so we were like triplets growing up.
We were the kind of family that spent every little penny left over on travel. They stuffed us into a little Fiat Panda and drove all around Europe as often as possible. I have seen every country in Europe more than once. I have great memories of those trips. I think you teach your children a lot about the world when you travel. Education and independence are very important in my family. I am an identical twin, so my parents stressed the importance of independence a lot more with me and my sister. They rarely dressed us in the same clothes, and if they did, I always wore red and my sister always wore blue so no one would say the wrong name.
Everybody knew that red equals Elin and blue equals Josefin.
They cut our hair differently and put my sister and me in different classes. Today I appreciate that they did that.
My sister has been my best friend since the day we were born, and she is more than a best friend today. But we learned early on that we were two different individuals. I wish everyone on this planet could have an identical twin — the bond we have is something very special. My parents split up when I was 7, and it was hard for me. I lived with each parent an equal amount of time after that, and I am thankful that I had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with both of them.
Despite the split, I feel like the base was still there.
