Capturing Community One Click at a Time

comprock

Open Source photography typically has been about the software, but that's wrong. It's about the community, about people—the most integral and vibrant part. It's about sharing, working together, and making a positive difference. Without the right medium, the vibrancy of our communities is lost.

By coming together, as a hobbyist or professional, we'll learn from each other about how to improve imagery all around. And we’ll help show the Open Source community’s greater impact on the world as a whole. I'll lead the sharing based on my experiences in photographing and leading photo teams at Open Source events around the world.


Michael Cannon is Peichi’s smiling man, Drusus’ Baba, an adventurous water-rat, Axelerant’s chief operating officer, cyclist, Peimic.com founder, photographer, poet, and world traveler. He started coding in 1984 and has since evolved to mentoring and strategic roles.

As part of his love to help others by sharing his experiences, he speaks about how organizational culture and technology choices can interrelate to solve a wide variety of business problems. When he isn’t doing that, you’ll find him photographing open source event around the globe for the evangelization of our Open Source communities.
