11 Variations on "Keep Calm and Carry On" The now-famous Keep Calm and Carry On poster was produced by the British Ministry of Information in 1939, as a quintessentially British statement of what to do in the event of German invasion. The poster actually wasn't circulated at the time, and only became popular after its rediscovery at a bookstore. Among my friends, it's something of a mantra -- I know one woman who has the phrase sewn into the lining of her coat.

But enough with boring history. Let's look at some wacky variations on the poster that have appeared online. 1. I first saw this on a whiteboard at a software company. 2. For all the hoopy froods in the house. 3. Everyone knows The Thing can only be killed with fire. 4. Mario or Zelda? 5. She'll want to hear what's up. 6. This is what you do if Mom isn't picking up. 7.

A spot of tea always helps. 8. Necessary advice for the coming zombie apocalypse. 9. Useful while you're waiting for that damn Sorting Hat to figure you out. 10. Easy for you to say, Gandalf! 11. Oh, internet. Rare and very interesting photos. Interesting and very rare photographs, you may never see. The first McDonald’s. Che Guevara and Fidel Castro. Capital of Brazil, on the beginning.

With Labor Day weekend coming up, I know a lot of us are going to be out there taking pictures! :) Since we have a long weekend to practice, I wanted to share with you this basic intro to SLR photography. If you have an SLR camera and are nervous to take it out of auto mode, this is the tutorial for you.

You may have heard words like aperture, exposure, and shutter speed and wondered just how on earth they come together to give you a better photo. I’ll give you a brief introduction on what they do and how they affect your photos turning out too bright, too dark, too blurry or JUST RIGHT. :) This guide will show you how to get the most out of your SLR camera and give you confidence to take it out of auto mode in no time!

Left: Canon T2i. To start, let’s put your camera in Aperture Priority mode or Shutter Priority mode. 1. Let’s talk a little bit about Aperture. A low aperture will also give you a shallow depth of field. Canon 50mm f/1.8 f/1.8 1/200 sec ISO 800 Now you try! 2. 3. Stefano Unterthiner Photography : Animals Face to Face | COLT + RANE.
