When you combine youth, unlimited cash and iPhone technology, you get braggadocios photographic evidence of a lavish lifestyle. Also known as the Rich Kids of Instagram. At first glance, this Tumblr is so ridiculously over the top it's laughable. But a deeper look reveals for me some cultural sadness...privileged kids posting bar tab receipts that cost more than four...

It may be pine trees, stockings, eggnog and carols where I'm at in the 'States, but here's a look at some seasonal partying elsewhere in the world. Ice swimming, road races, and...it turns out...even KFC. Serbia, Thailand, Japan and the West Bank represent. Whatever you celebrate, however you celebrate and wherever you are....

ANOTHER UPDATE 12/19: today Instagram did a much better job in the media explaining their position - specifically around not "selling" your images as in "here ya go company X, use this in your next billboard". As an artist & entrepreneur, having been involved in IP licensing all my professional career and navigated these waters before...as such I think I understand their challenge better than most. The legalese required around IP creators (in this case...

You're going to think I've lost my mind. But since I'm told the internet is made of cats...I couldn't resist this one. Whatever you want to say about pet photos (I'm usually on the front lines of vigorous head-shaking when it comes to this well-known and over-saturated genre) this series of "cat photos" stopped me in my tracks.

If you’re an on-location photographer or filmmaker, then you know how much value a great location can add to the shoot. I like to find and feature supercool locations around the world. Stuff I discover, stuff that others send me, places I’d love to shoot. If the location makes you scratch your chin, laugh aloud or the hair on your arms stands up... it might...

The Fine Art world has always been an interest of mine. In fact, I was pursuing a graduate degree in the philosophy of art before I quit to pursue photography full time. Quitting was the result of a waning interest in learning about dead white guys --- and it was a good move for me in the long run. Humans have been creating art for...

If you take photos for a living - or simply love the craft - you are probably like me in that you've spent more of your hard earned dough on cameras and photographic gadgetry than the average Joe. But would you be willing to pay 2 million dollars for a camera? That's a whole new level of love for the magic light-box. I'm referring to David Douglas Duncan's Leica...
