NOTE: If you see any improper spelling in this paragraph, please respond obnoxiously. Updated 12/2/11:
Some Bizzare and Odd things around us… Beauty of the nature lies in viewer’s eyes. A photograph is just a way to show or represent that beauty. Here is a bunch of some wonderful pictures which are not only the example of beautiful photography but are also a photograph of some miracles happening in the world. Rune Guneriussen These dream-like installations are assembled, and then photographed by Norwegian artist Rune Guneriussen. Just imagine being out for a walk in Norway’s countryside, turning a corner and discovering a magical forest of lamps, a tangle of chairs, or a river of books. Sadly, once the photograph is taken, Rune removes the installation, the only proof of it’s existence being these images… sort of like waking up from an amazing dream that you could have sworn was real. As an artist, I believe strongly that art itself should be questioning and bewildering as opposed to patronising and restricting. As opposed to the current fashion I do not want to dictate a way to the understanding of my art, but rather indicate a path to understanding a story.
National Geographic Photo Contest 2011 - Alan Taylor - In Focus - The Atlantic - StumbleUpon National Geographic is currently holding its annual photo contest, with the deadline for submissions coming up on November 30.

The Most Stunning NME Photography Of The Year 2011 - The Big Picture - NME.COM - The world's fastest music news service, music videos, interviews, photos and free stuff to win 2011 has been another mentally busy year for NME's crack team of photographers. Making the most of their unprecendented access to bands across the globe, they've covered every inch of the music world over the last 12 months - from Camden to Williamsburg, Ibiza, Vancouver and of course Glastonbury - to capture endless digital reels of photographic excellence. From feather fights with Metronomy to projectile puking courtesy of Cerebral Ballzy, via intimate portraits of Florence and The Horrors plus Gerard Way and Beyonce on stage they've caught it all. Jarvis at Glasto? Dave Grohl in the NME Awards moshpit?
Heroic Squirrel Saves Her Baby For a moment, this dog believed that he got very nice piece of meat when he caught that little squirrel baby. But, suddenly, something jumped on him and took it’s attention while little squirrel managed to escape. Heroic squirrel mother acted very brave in this situation and saved her baby’s life by an heroic act that deserves lot of respect. Some people could learn a lot of from this squirrel. 100,000 LED Become Fake Fireflies On Tokyo's Sumida River Maybe it’s just us, but it feels as if bioluminescence is having a bit of a moment right now. A few months ago everyone was all a-flutter about these awesome long exposure photos of fireflies, we marveled at an interactive jellyfish installation in Vancouver and the American Natural History Museum has an exhibition on view dedicated to these creatures of light. Last weekend, at the inaugural Tokyo Hotaru festival, some 100,000 LED lights did their best firefly impersonation as they floated down the Sumida River. Panasonic provided the LED balls, which were supposedly solar powered and designed to light up upon impact with water. Before you go getting all environmental though about LEDs polluting our waterways, you can rest easy knowing that the LEDs were all caught in a large net and removed from the river (though we gotta speculate that they must’ve lost at least one or two in there).
Shoe Lacing Methods Mathematics tells us that there are more than 2 Trillion ways of feeding a lace through the six pairs of eyelets on an average shoe. This section presents a fairly extensive selection of 50 shoe lacing tutorials. They include traditional and alternative lacing methods that are either widely used, have a particular feature or benefit, or that I just like the look of.
