Back to the Future

I’ve recently been enjoying Young Me Now, a blog that posts photo recreations. I love how it shows the changes over time and also the creativity of the subjects.

It demonstrates that grouping similar objects together is an easy and quick way to organize. It also proves [...]

When I saw photographer Tim Flach’s portfolio, I instantly felt a connection. He photographs animals of all varieties, but I found his photos of horses and wolves to [...]

Steve McCurry

I saw this blog entry over at mymodernmet.com that features 22 incredible photos from faraway places. The photos of Steve McCurry are beyond incredible.
