Pictures of Moments Speak More than Thousand Words...... Picture can speak thousands of words. Random pictures of insignificant moments always been the most important and most valuable. Photographers and painters beautifully imprint huge number of events, objects and types. Some do it by accident on the momentary desire. Others do it in order to fix the time for the future. For me they are really different and thoughtful, simple but speak lots of words……… 1. Photographer – Zilvinas Valeika 2. 3. One of the best photos on the version of Red Bull Illume 2010. 4.

It’s a simple notion that applies to many aspects of our lives, but especially to historical photography. Sometimes, one simple picture can tell you more about history than any story you might read or any document you might analyze. These photographs all tell stories about the historical figures or events that they represent. Perhaps the wars, poverty, fights for freedom and little miracles of the past have lessons for us that we can use today?

So I thought it was about time I shared what is in my camera bag and give y’all a couple gear recommendations. There is no way I could possibly talk about all the gear recommendations I have but I thought this post could at least be a start. I will be talking more about photography, design, travel, working on the road and running a studio in the future. This post is all about choosing the right photography gear. That’s the basis of why I have the two gear packs I am recommending below. 1. iPhone 5 | 2. In both set-ups I have included an iPhone 5. The Starter Set-Up – $2400 I chose the 6D because it’s the least expensive Full Frame camera Canon makes, you can find them for about $2000. To see an example of what this set-up can shoot check out the Go Swim post, I shot when we were in Harbor Springs. 1. iPhone 5 | 2. The Real Deal Set-Up ($6200)

30 Of The Most Powerful Images Ever A picture is worth a thousand words, but not all pictures are created equal. These pictures are powerful. They are gripping and unforgettable because of the volumes they speak about the human condition – about some of the best and worst moments of contemporary human existence. We should warn our readers that some of these pictures may upset them, while others may fill them with joy. Some of these photographs may mean more to some of our readers than to others. P.S: we always try our best to credit each and every photographer, but sometimes it’s impossible to track some of them. 1. Image credits: Mike Wells 2. Image credits: kligon5 3.
