Sometimes such last names can bring a lot of troubles…and laughter ))
But if these people don’t change them it means it doesn’t bother them.

African Albinos (8 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       30 Jul 2009       23235
Being an albino in Africa is not only difficult but also very dangerous.
There is a real “hunt” on them in Tanzania and Burundi.
People believe that the body parts of albinos bring wealth and luck.
For example, fishermen are making fishing nets out of their hair because they believe it will bring abundance and lots of fish.
International organizations offer camps where albinos can live and be protected.

Many children in China have to work from their early childhood. And this small group of children performs on the streets.
They prepare all the shows themselves and use all the stuff they can find for their performances. The kids don’t work for money but only for food.

First - he shouldn’t have parked his car near the roadwork and secondly, the workers could’ve called a tow truck...

The girl wanted to jump from the roof of a building, but fortunately she was saved.
But what surprised me the most is the cold-bloodedness of one of the rescuers on the last image.
Perhaps he has already seen a lot of this ))

In Honduras, two police officers dressed up as civilians tried to infiltrate the protest rally of supporters of ousted President Zelaya.
But the supporters have noticed their police uniforms in the back seat of the car. They got them out of the car and... The officers did not expect such turn of events.

An interesting project of Nathan Schroder, who likes to look what people have in their pockets and take pictures of their content.
I watched with a big interest what people have there ;))

Nice present! (3 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       29 Jul 2009       12465
This 98-inch plasma TV was mounted in the ceiling by the parents as a present to their kid.
According to the mother, her son loves playing computer games and watching videos.
Though, it only encourages your kid to lie all day long in your bed, doing nothing apart spoiling his eyes and making him lazy. But truth to be told, I wouldn’t say no if my parents did the same when I was a younger ;)

Stunning sand art (32 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       29 Jul 2009       15875
This amazing artwork is done by San Francisco artist Andres Amador.
He usually patiently waits for a full or new moon to be sure that low tides would prepare for him a perfect “canvas” to do his work.
Sadly enough, but within several hours these masterpieces are wiped out by the ocean…

The Swimming Cities is a “fleet” of three carefully handcrafted vessels that navigated the Adriatic Sea from the Karst region, Slovenia to Venice, Italy. It’s really well made. I’d love to go with them in this fascinating adventure!

These cats are really lucky, because their owners will do anything for their loving pets.
And making a ladder which goes from the window to the outside isn’t a problem for them.

VHS tapes for life (5 pics)

At the Venice Biennale, a contemporary work of art was presented under the title Life Span - a huge block of 195.774 VHS tapes.
Their duration is 66 years, or in other words, they can record the life of a person. It is a physical representation of what people can see during their lifetime, from birth til death. I'm impressed!

Photo retouching (14 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       28 Jul 2009       18226
Photo retouching is a treatment of a photograph that adjusts or removes unwanted elements of the image.
And if the original can be not very successful, after the photo’s been retouched, this image is good to go on the covers of magazines.
I think you will see easily where the original image and the retouched one are ;)

These photos come from the series The flood in Minsk but I decided to post them separately.
Very rare shots. Personally, I have never seen anyone riding a jet ski in a flooded city before.
Really cool.
