I'm a Photographer, not a Terrorist Ernestine Ruben Biography "How can our imaginations take on 'real life' qualities? Does light move, can the eye go beyond that which one sees? Do we feel the flow of life? In their entirety, my works offer a continuing reflection on human survival. I seek to make us aware of the sensuous character of body, spirit, nature, space, and material – of the interpenetration of the unnumbered dimensions of our environment and of the intersection of those dimensions in human life." - Ernestine Ruben Ernestine Ruben lives and works in New York City and is an internationally known artist, who grew up surrounded by art and artists. She has photographed the human body with great emphasis on the human hand and applies her love of life to landscapes and architecture.

Sam Dobson, photographe russe, découvre un arc en ciel blanc au Pôle Nord Vous pensez qu’un arc-en-ciel ne peut être que multicolore ? Pas forcément, et c’est ce que Sam Dobson, photographe russe en expédition au Pôle Nord, nous démontre avec une photo d’arc-en-ciel blanc. Cette photo a été prise vers minuit non loin du Pôle Nord à partir du brise-glace 50 years of Victory. Sam Dobson, photographe amateur (sa galerie sur 500px), a déclaré qu’il se sentait « privilégié de faire partie de cette expédition et d’être le témoin d’une chose que très peu de gens peuvent affirmer avoir vu de leurs yeux ». Pourquoi un arc en ciel blanc ? A distance, ce phénomène est d’ailleurs difficilement observable comme le montre la photo ci-dessous. Si vous partez pour une expédition photo au Pôle Nord, soyez attentifs à ce phénomène. Source : DailyMail Pour aller plus loin :

The exhibition shall present works of such well-known authors as: Christophe Agou, Narelle Autio, Maciej Dakowicz, David Gibson, Bruce Gilden, Thierry Girard, Andrew Z. The exhibition of more than 30 world’s best street photographers – selected by Sophie Howarth and Stephen McLaren, authors of an album on street photography – shall be accompanied by a presentation of works by Polish photographers. „Street Photography Here and Now”. Capturing amusing moments of the daily life, catching people red-handed and at moments of oblivion, pointing out absurdities – this is what street photographers do.
