My father was the one who introduced me to photography, so it looked like a perfect idea. After he gave me the permission to edit these old photos, this mixture of photography and illustration came into being....

In fact, it is literally one of the most basic foundations of any bond, and things can get messed up pretty quickly if it is missing. Speaking of respect, this woman was absolutely stunned when her husband suddenly acted rudely and lashed out at her.

It all began with a spontaneous sign in the sleepy town of Marshfield in Southwest Missouri. “Hey DQ! Wanna have a sign war?” wrote McDonald’s employees on the fast food restaurant’s outdoor marquee on July 13th. Little did they know that this seemingly benign act of provoking a nearby Dairy Queen would take an unexpected turn and get real messy, real fast… Or did they?

In my second year of college, there was a project to make a little book based on a single day of our lives. I based mine on a camping trip with my mum, done in the style and wording of a children’s storybook. The book’s Coptic bound, I loved learning about the different methods of bookbinding, and each illustration was done in watercolor straight onto the book pages. More info: deviantart....
My name is Ruurd Jelle van der Leij and I’m a Dutch wildlife photographer and filmer. Over the past 35 days, I’ve spent more time in my shed than inside my house. The reason. I was working on a unique series of pictures of a kingfisher. The bird appeared in my garden a little over a month ago. It discovered the pond which contains a lot of fish. Before I had quite some experience with kingfishers so I knew that by placing a branch in the right place, I should be able to give the bird a nice fishing spot which was also easy to photograph....
This particular story comes from Redditor Weasel_Cannon who worked as a server at a very popular 24-hour breakfast diner/chain in his first job. One morning, a lady arrived who said she wanted an omelette. Nothing unusual here but a regular morning meal. “We have a list of pre-built omelettes, or you can build your own, so I ask her how she’d like her omelette,” the author wrote. “Just a regular omelette, please”, the customer said....

Whether we like it or not, the first impression really does matter. We tend to make a whole bunch of immediate judgments about people within the first few seconds of meeting them. The way they dress, how they smile, the way they speak, and their body language all quickly add up into a broad picture of what we think about the person… and if we date them. And even though some initial impressions end up being false, quite a few of them turn out to be right on the money....
