While we USA folks were struggling to get our taxes handled a couple days ago on April 15th, we shouldn't have been fussing or celebrating, we should have been thinking of the lives lost aboard the RMS Titanic--which sunk 100 years ago on that day. Since this week marks that horrific -- albeit fascinating -- event that has held our culture's attention...

Young NYC based photographer Ignacio Torres gave me cause for pause with his fascinating photographs that look like they come straight from the mind of Carl Sagan ("we are all made of star stuff"). Torres used three dimensional gifs to make these photographs even more dynamic. Click through the gallery image tabs above for more examples of Torres' work. Here's what he has to say about his "Stellar" project: This project began from the theory...

Hey photo friends - Erik here. While I'm typically the video guy around these parts, I wanted to hop on the blog to quickly tell you about a piece of camera gear that I’ve been enjoying lately. I picked up a Tilt Transformer from Lensbaby about a month ago and it’s now a permanent piece of my walk-around photography kit. The Tilt Transformer allows you to mount your Nikon lenses to a Micro Four Thirds...

In the last few months, tornados have ripped through much of midwest. The wreckage is crazy, many people have lost everything--some even their lives--and aide workers are doing their best to piece it all back together. There a few photos of the storms themselves--which are huge and scary--but mostly, there are tons of photos of the aftermath...destroyed houses, overturned cars, ruined farms...which kind of fall into the...

My homies over at Flavorwire ran a really cool gallery of cameras made out of unusual stuff--like trees, shells, and--like you see in the photo above, a turtle shell (no turtles were harmed in the making...only natural causes of death...)... Which got me thinking: cameras have been along so long, people have had the chance to do some really weird stuff with them. Though a lot of manufacturers might have you think differently, the body...

Are the fees or prices you're charging for your creative services too low? I bet they are. Try doubling the money. You have to deliver the goods, of course, but that's true in any work. Chances are that the clients you ditched needed ditching, the clients you carry forward and the new clients you land will pay those fees happily and will better understand the value you bring. And I'm guessing you'll be happier and...

There has always been something haunting to me about farmland in the off-seasons, when everything is yellow and wilted, or when snow sits quietly in the trenches that are usually full of blooming crops. Cows move minimally through faded landscapes, and the entire thing has an air of melancholy and stillness to it. Capturing this feeling is not easy, unless perhaps you're photographer Cole Rise. He's our featured Emerging Talent this week. He shoots with...

I don't know these Galileo guys, but I want to know them now. After you've pondered this video for about a quarter of a second and fully comprehending the future of this device and others like it -- all the way down to how it might affect your job, your future and your career path (for better + worse), consider kicking into their kickstarter project. I did. Or you can always bury your head in...
