There are dozens of spacecraft orbiting our solar system. NASA and ESA take many photographs of Earth, Mercury, the Moon, Mars, Saturn and other planets. Inside this post you can see the most recent pictures from around our solar system. Some of them are closely scaled, others are millions of kilometers afar which makes them ever more fantastic and amazing.

Here's some photos of Edward Curtis. I'm not the owner, I found it interesting and only collect them on my HD. Enjoy!

These breathtaking photographs can show you the world, shining, shimmering, and splendid. This is simply amazing!

These old school photos of the USA were taken by Christine Osinski whose pictures were published in the best New York magazines and newspapers. Welcome to black and white America!

It’s not that easy to recreate photographs in paintings so that it will be difficult to point out the original picture and its painted copy. Norman Rockwell created real masterpieces in painting photos and spiced them up a little.

Looking at these photos of New Zealand after Saturday’s earthquake, I get chills down my spine. It must be horrible to live in Christchurch where people got approximately 300 temblors in just 5 days. Almost 100,000 houses were damaged. It’s a miracle that no one has been reported dead as the earthquake magnitude was 7.1. Local authorities announced a state of civil emergency for the next week.

New Zealand is located in the area where 2 tectonic plates collide. Every year the country faces more than 10,000 earthquakes, but only less than 10 leave such damage.

Time to leave. This is the name of this collection of amazing photos. I would call it “Pigeon Clock”. What about you?

Englishmen know how to night out and get the most pleasure on Fridays and weekends. These photos show ordinary night life in England.

Even though this collection of photos by Li Wei has some oldies of the day, it’s still awesome.

Amazing photographs that capture motion we can’t notice in reality. Photographer Harold Edgerton knows perfectly well how to extend our awareness of time.

The amazing photos were taken by Dr. Vaggelis Fragiadakis who is an amateur photographer, who was originally from Greece. The people in the black and white photos are mainly down on their luck. You can practically tell their life story by looking at their wrinkled faces.

These are some rare photos of your favorite Star Wars characters. What makes them rare is that some of them were taken during production of the movie, while others were taken of the characters during breaks in between takes and yet others were taken off set. They are indeed rare Star Wars photos.

These are some aerial photos of some very interesting places from all over the world. From the mountains to a cemetery and from the city to the country, these photos provide a very different view of these places. They are indeed some unique photos.

Baby photography by Evan Kafka. Aren't they cute?

Remember the post of yesterday about Jenny, a girl who quitted her job in a creative, original and daring way?

Well, as some of you mentioned it in the comments, it was nothing but another Internet hoax.

As entertaining as it was, nothing was true, the girl is just a Californian actress (at least, that's what she says..) named Elyse Porterfield.

I’ll let you discover more pics of her and her explanations in the following…

Here’s how this young girl quit her job sending these pictures to all her co-workers an her boss, of course. Bravo Jenny!

Some people like to have fun by making bizarre faces on the camera. This collection is awesome. Just don’t get scared.

These are photographs from 1910-1012 taken by Bain News Service.

These retro photos of Paris are beautiful and amazing. They were taken in the beginning of the 20th century. They were black and white at first. But color was added to them later on.

These are spiritual photographs taken by William Hope (1863-1933). I wonder if they are for real. What if he simply used the very first version of Photoshop?

If you can’t translate something from one language into another one, better use the original phrase. Otherwise you will look hilarious just like these Asians who are wearing Engrish t-shirts.

A great collection of thrilling and fantastic space photos taken by NASA.

Different photographs of weapon shots. All these battles and military trainings look pretty wild.

An interesting compilation of retro pictures of Tour de France, a bicycle race that covers approximately 3,600 kilometers (2,200 mi) throughout France and bordering countries.

All these photographs show the construction of the Empire State Building. It is a 102-story skyscraper in New York City that is located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and West 34th Street. Being 1472 feet (448 metres) tall, this was the tallest building in the world for over 40 years since its completion in 1931. Only in 1972 when the North Tower of the World Trade Center was built, the Empire State Building was deposed as the world’s highest skyscraper.
