David Maisel Sees All

.. from the window of his plan/helicopter/rocket or a really really tall and portable building. Anyway. These aerial photographs by David Maisel are supercool. They’re so beautiful one would almost not recognise them as aerials if you didn’t know better. But not only do they look pretty, they are also themed around human intervention with nature and the funny habit we have of destroying things we love. Like nature and fresh air. Check out the post on 2fotos.blogspot.com where I originally found these photos, or the guy’s website, for dozens upon dozens more, or hit the jump for three of my other favourites :) (more…)

Chicks With Guns

Chicks with guns, yeah, but maybe a little bit less sexually available to you as you might hope. These are real pictures from girls on duty in the Israeli army. Rachel Papo, did service in the late 80’s herself for two years, went back to photograph this phenomenon. All “models” are at least 18 years of age. 5 Handpicked favourites after the jump! Also, I’ve filed this under “Women” too because I know how much of the american population gets a hard-on from guns. (more…)

Kevin van Aelst

Give a science freak a camera and a dutch name, and voila genius pictures. Check out these snapshots taken by the mastermind Kevin van Aelst. Combining everyday materials and food with topics of science, anatomy, mathematical drawings and whatnot, this man makes for a couple of more than interesting photos. I had a great time checking out his gallery, I hope you will too. Three more of my favourite science photos after the jump :) Thanks to TWBE for the update (more…)

Backflashes, Ruedione

As the creating photographer “ruedione” has to say about the whole:

the intention was to visualize the “bombing feeling” that many writers worldwide experience every day…or better night. to achieve this goal i was traveling worldwide to meet writers and join them on their nightly adventures.

many years ago, this feeling/this thrill kept as well myself going out at night and when i look back, i can say that this movement was probably one of the strongest influences in my life.
