Realistic pictures reflect imagination of designer, which is “squeezed” into real photos. Most of the photos presented below capture the attention and the spirit, whether they are beautiful or horrible, because this does not meet every day. And each spectator begins to think that my photography was going to say the words of the author. […]
Be it climbing up as high as a 380-meter crane or a 22-storey building – two young Russians have got it all, and more, on their cameras and Alexander Remnov call themselves skywalkers, and take incredible, vertigo-inducing pictures of each other on top of the highest buildings in Moscow and some other cities in Russia.

Polish artist Paul Kuczynski will be as depressing as he needs to be to make sure you look at the world differently…

Here is an ingenious organization and optimization of space in rooms by Steve Sauer at Seattle. An adjustment of furniture and all of the housing to only 16 squared meters. An excellent example of revolutionary apartment design that is bringing a new philosophy (probably brought by Japan architecture paradigm) of space and resource conservation in Western Architecture.

Is beauty really skin deep? If advertising is to be believed, then it is for women.
The modern woman is pictured as a ‘superwoman’ who can whip up a great quiche and balance the checkbook while she manages her husband, kids, full-time job, 24-hour bra, hair, make-up, weight and nails.
Her image is pristine and her legacy is burning the candle at both ends. An ideal image that’s impossible to live up to.
You don’t have to look far in advertising to see it. Illustration art is great study in popular culture role-playing.
Jump back a few decades. During the 1930s depression years, women were portrayed in the home. In the early-1940 war years, they were champions of the assembly line. After the war, they were expected to retreat to the kitchen. Nowadays, women are everywhere and probably dog-tired.
Cultural appetites show up straight away in advertising illustrations. The illustrator, McClelland Barclay, is a good example. Before World War II, Barclay was known for his flair in painting stunningly beautiful women.
His long-limbed, rosy-cheeked, fashionably dressed beauties strolled down streets and lined cocktail bars in 1930s advertising campaigns and magazine covers such as The Saturday Evening Post and Pictorial Review.
When you look at his work, his ability to capture momentary beauty is undeniable. You almost expect the women in his advertisements to speak. They’re that lifelike.

Dancers Among Us is a collection of NYC dance photographs featuring members of the Paul Taylor, Mark Morris and Martha Graham Dance Companies. This is an ongoing project that began in the spring of 2009. There were no trampolines or other devices used for these images, just thousands of hours of training!
If some cool photos would ever make you jump up out of joy than Dancers Among Us taken by Jordan Matter photo series will be able to do just that.
Jordan explained the inspiration behind this series:
“The idea for this body of work came during a performance by the Paul Taylor Dance Company. I was inspired by the dancers’ stunning combination of artistry and athleticism. Their commitment obviously extends beyond the rehearsals and performances- it is a way of life. I began to photograph these dancers as everyday people. In the photographs they are away from the stage, yet they cannot leave dance behind. As they go about their daily routines, they do so as dancers. This speaks to the power of a passionate life; if you’re fully invested in something, it is always with you.”
He continues to discuss deeper meanings of Dancers Among Us photo project:
“I wondered about the impact of the recession on people’s identities. If a woman loses her job, does she lose a part of her identity as well? Who is the journalist, if he is no longer employed to write? Who is the chef without a kitchen?
