You’ll see comparative pictures of two world’s famous cities: Dubai and Las Vegas.It’s crazy how time flies and how the two cities aroused from the desert. I love to look at pictures like this
There are some very expensive apartments in Moscow, no wonder it is a capital. This one for example is rented for $40,000 per month. I know to each their own, but whoever decorated this apartment has a very poor taste..

We all have watched a super hero movie or cartoon at one point in our lives, you might have even dreamed of being a crime fighter yourself. Well these people have taken those dreams of helping the downtrodden and turned them into realities.
We’ve all experiences shitty and WTF situations at least once in our lives. And that’s what you will see in these pictures, except that those are situations you will probably never experience! The authors of these designs have cleverly illustrated WTF realistic and unrealistic moments focusing on simplicity.
I love it!
They say a picture is worth 1000 words and in this case it is true. These photos tell a story of how body armor saved the lives of these men. Whether it’s their helmets or their flak jackets, or even some gadgets, all of these men owe their lives to their body saving armor.
These are some great photos of a couple in love. This is a real love story and very romantic. It is all very cute and tells a real story of love.

Another internet meme that is becoming popular on the Web.This time, all of these montages start with the picture of a lapdog - the Bichon Frise, a cute little white doggy which is already funny itself. Let’s see the many works of photoshoppers resulting in this funny Puff dog meme.
Here's the original photo.
“Paris vs New York, a tally of two cities”, this is the series of posters about Paris and New York, comparing the two cities. Here’s what the author wrote about his work: “A friendly visual match between those two cities, as seen by a Parisian-based-lover on New York's details, clichés and contradictions.”
The streets of New York City have a wide array of people and sights to see. These photos were taken in 1974. From the musicians to the shops to something as simple as railroad tracks it is all very grand. But then again, they don’t call it the big apple for nothing.
These are some beautiful cemetery sculptures. Many are of angels, some are older than others, some are realistic, and they all are incredible. It took some truly gifted artists to sculpt these wonderful sculptures.
These amazing ships are all made of Legos. Most of them are large, some are small, and they are all realistic. It must have taken months for these amazing ships to be assembled. They are truly incredible works of art.

This is a hair weave work by Chinese Zhang Dexuan, 66. He’s weaving portraits on hair, a technique invented by his grandmother. Zhang learned the skill in 2 years and accomplished his first portrait before he turned 30. He normally makes miniature portraits, working with magnifier.
The only sad thing about it is as he doesn’t have a descendant to transmit the skill now, it may be lost in future..
