Fri, 25 Jul 2008 21:41:00 +0200 Here are some amazing light trail photographs, and if you are interested to take a few photos yourself then the Digital Photography School blog has really good beginner's guide. For instance: 'Location - the most obvious thing with location is that you'll need it to be somewhere near a road - however there's more to think about than that.' The location should be chosen to add some interest to the photo. ' This might be one where there are well lit buildings along the road, one where multiple roads merge together to create light trails in different directions, on the bend of a road so that the trails sweep through the image, near a roundabout so the trails create circular shapes, in the middle of dual carriageways.' ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Other Posts:Tanklimo.

Thu, 24 Jul 2008 20:10:00 +0200 A dream which took 14 years to manifest, for which the work began in May 2005, and finally it was on April 28, 2007 that the exhibit opened in Schagen, Holland and people had the first look of Noah's Ark Replica by Johan Huibers. Johan Huibers, a Ducth contractor by trade, built a replica of Noah's ark, using modern tools working from 8 to 5, six days a week, and most of the work was done by him, with occasional help from his son after school. The ark was built using American cedar and Norwegian pine, using the dimensions: 150 cubits long (225 feet), 30 cubits high (45 feet) and 20 cubits wide (30 feet) which is two-thirds the length of a football field and as high as a three-story house. People are amazed seeing the life size models of giraffes, elephants, lions, crocodiles, zebras, bison and other animals in the main hold. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Here are the video links: Noah's Ark 1| Noah's Ark 2| Noah's Ark 3.Other Posts: Tinfoil Art.

The object which 'landed' on the grass next to City Hall and was emitting smoke and a noise, got the attention of the passers-by. The men in the dark glasses who were guarding the site refused to explain to passers-by what was happening which got people more curious & they were taking photos of it. It was known later that the Potters Fields Park was been hired for a campaign to promote the launch of the Vauxhall Insignia car (sold under the Opel brand outside the UK). Now this is something new, creative & interesting way to promote a product which we haven't come across in the past. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (Image credit: jessicaami).Other Posts: Road Train.

Jeff Koons' works incorporates imagery using painting, sculpture, and other forms, often in large scale. It was in the year 1992 he was commissioned to create a piece for an art exhibition in Arolsen, Germany and the result was Puppy, a forty-three foot (12.4 m) tall topiary sculpture of a West Highland White Terrier puppy created in a variety of flowers on a steel substructure. Again in 1995 the sculpture was put up at the Museum of Contemporary Art on Sydney Harbour on a new, more permanent, stainless steel armature with an internal irrigation system. And it was in the year 1997 the piece was purchased by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation and installed on the terrace outside the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in Spain. Made of stainless steel, wood (at Arolsen only), soil, geotextile fabric, internal irrigation system, and live flowering plants, its something waiting to be admired! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (Image: Credit).Other Posts: Presidential Planes. 4 Amazing Garbage Islands.

Perhaps this was whats needed in the shoe market which requires creativity to quite an extent. This is something which smartly fits in for travelling and into everybody's limited urban space. It was while packing for a trip, sneaker-biz experienced Stephen Yeung got an idea and it was the meeting with Matthias & Sebastian Thies from K&T which was the key-point to create a whole new range out of the idea. There were quite a few changes to optimize Nat -2 as what we see it today. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Other Posts: Lady Police Officers. Houses With Magnificent View.
