Photo Of The Day

cross post but photo of the day etc

'Cliff-climbing polar bear attempting to eat seabird eggs': A young male polar bear climbs on a cliff face above the ocean at Ostrova Oranskie, in northern Novaya Zemlya, Russia, attempting unsuccessfully to feed on eggs from the nests of Brünnich's guillemots, early last July. The photo by Jenny E. Ross, won first prize in the Nature Singles category

It's not a photo, but you still get the picture.

So why did you post it in the Photo thread?

Because I imagine it as a photo.

Fucking hell, LOL.

Coincidentally, maybe, that photo is being displayed in an exhibition that's just started at Somerset House - http://www.somersethouse.org.uk/visual-arts/henri-cartier-bresson-a-question-of-colour

plan to go to that. love Cartier-Bresson, Meyorowitz, Fred Herzog...

I'm going tomorrow to see the last day of the 10x10 exhibition, it's going to be hard not to take a peek at the Cartier Bresson even though i promised the gf i'd go with her.

Some heavy work on The Atlantic today, can't do it justice reposting them

heavy indeed.

Blimey, heavy stuff. Great photography though, shows the power of great photo journalism

shit

EDIT: as in 'whoa, shit, harrowing'.

Horrible. Although I listen to the news on the radio (no TV) and have heard plenty of analysis and comment about the syria conflict, I have to admit to being thoroughly shocked by many of those images. The casualties are obviously appalling however it is the extent of the material damage wrecked on the cities that speaks volumes to me about the intensity of the conflict and it's impact on normal people and families.

Number 15 is beautifully taken.

come at me br .

^repped! Bang goes my afternoon!

Dude. I'm on page 36 and still going. I'm meant to be preparing for an audit but fuck it...

what is it? I just get a page saying "sorry our servers are over capacity"

I got to page 48, I have done no work since lunch time!! (I have had no work to do so it has been a good use of my time). It's a site with lots of random photos posted without comment. It's funny how the random photos flow from each other. Looks like too many people have just found the website though!

^^ pages full of cool/amusing photos
