Living in Three Centuries: The Face of Age is the working title for this black-and-white photographic portrait project by Mark Story. For nearly 20 plus years, in between productions, the successful commercial media creator, Story, has retreated into his creative mind and traveled in various locations around the world, looking for centenarians. After two decades, Story has accumulated more than 15,000 portraits. His mission? To photograph the manifestation of human aging. For the best part of this journey Story has been finding super-centenarians, which means that the elder has lived to be at least 110 years old.
Each of the seventy-two portraits featured in the exhibition was shot using a deep black background and lighting placed just right to bring attention to the the wrinkles - the portrait of the lady above depicts this very clearly, being very weathered and worn. Collectively though, each portrait is beautiful and poignant, deeply moving and in some cases, almost shocking. They do, however, have something in common; they are all very technically beautiful...

Photographer James Cooper brings you under the sea in a collection of ways you might never have thought of or up. Take for example the set of green horses just floating about. Or perhaps you’d be more into some green string tied to some rocks? I bet you’re here for the spraypaint can. All of these things are much more magnificent underwater, and since I know that’s what you want to see, Cooper has you covered...
Everybody knows that in Russia bears walk around the streets and play balalaika. But it is something extra new that Russians use Golden cars. However, speaking about the Musical contest Eurovision 2009 that was organized stylishly in Moscow recently it’s easily to imagine such phenomenon. Gold-filled cars are not new in the auto-tuning world. In one of the German museums a gold-filled Porsche boxter was exhibited. The difference is that while Germans exhibit these cars in museums – the Russians use them daily...

3D modeling or 3D CGI Illustration has become somewhat sophisticated in recent years, but still often plagued from an unnaturalness and artificiality except in the hands of South Korean Soa Lee and a few other adept 3D artists. Soa’s lustrous career started from being a traditional cell animator, to being one of the most highly-prized 3D artist of our time. It isn’t hard to figure out why. Her female characters and fantasy-themed images appear fluid, dreamy, sublime, picturesque and have a naturalism, or a “classical painting” quality that isn’t often present in 3D renderings. Soa’s finessed command of rendering and knowledge of compositional techniques reflect her drawing skills (she starts each piece with pencil sketches) and principles learned from traditional western fine art painting. They also have a remarkable sense of detail, color, texture, lighting and motion...
