Installation piece, Into the Heart of Lightness, by Doug Wheeler seen at the David Zwirmer Gallery.
“We have first-hand experiences, and those are the ones we don’t forget. They stay with us and hopefully they’re meaningful enough that they’re with you the rest of your life. That’s pretty much what I’ve always been after. I’ve always tried to do that stuff that has an effect on you that you never forget the first time.”
WeTheUrban has added a second edition to their Natural Palettes set. What makes these sets so awesome is that 1) They’re taken from nature 2) They’re nature gifs.
Some well known and not so well known Jeff Wall photographs. It’s so important to show more than just the popular works-kind of like listening to the whole album versus listening to only the single. There is so much more to a photographer than just a few good photographs.
Ben Nunery and his daughter, Olivia, recreate the wedding photos of her father and deceased mother, Ali. There’s not a lot I can say about them-I might start crying.
Check out the Buzzfeed article and see the photographer’s (Ali’s sister) blog. Maybe have some tissues on hand.
I love photography and I love outer space, and I love photographer Lincoln Harrison's Nightscapes portfolio.

Gangsta Grandparents: a hilarious, yet eye-opening photo series by Linda Dajana Kruger, aka Dai Lyn Power. Kruger had the genius idea of dressing up our elders in ‘gangsta’ outfits. Yes, these old folks look ridiculous, but the series can lend us perspective on how they view us and our ridiculous fashions.
Dai Lyn Power has some other amazing works. Check 'em out!

Wowza, talk about colorful. I found this awesome tumblr dedicated to creating color palettes from nature photographs. I especially like the gifs-seems to really bring the color to life.
Check out Natural Palettes for your viewing pleasure!
