Does your dog hide under the bed during thunderstorms? Do they pace and pant when you leave for work? That trembling, those wide eyes—it breaks your heart to see your furry friend so scared. You wish you could explain there’s nothing to be afraid of, but dogs don’t understand the way we do. Their fear is very real, but that doesn’t mean they have to live like this. You can help them feel safe and happy again....
Huge skeletons have “come to life” on a street in Mexico City. Celebrating the Day of the Dead, the sculptures have become the center of attention in the whole Tlahuac neighborhood. They measure over 11 feet wide and 7 feet tall, and set the tone for the important annual festival during which the locals honor the lives of the departed. Piles of crumbled concrete at the places where the skeletons are connected to the street perfectly create the illusion that the undead are bursting through the asphalt....
Here are a few shots from a very charming and pretty wild beach on Crete, Greece’s largest island. I love water, these images featuring my 8-year-old son always brighten my day when it’s gloomy outside. Photography is my passion, my daily work and the best way to find peace and harmony. I take photos intuitively – with my camera I am like a child with a toy. Once I looked for shots hastily, now I know that only when I slow down, I see so much more....

According to the National Missing and Unidentified Persons (NamUS) database, more than 600,000 people go missing in the United States every year. Now, just imagine how many people disappear around the world annually. The number might surpass one million, if not more. While this amount is shocking already, just think about all the people who are affected by their family members or close ones going missing. This is a nerve-wracking tragedy that no one deserves....
Infidelity automatically destroys any semblance of a once-harmonious relationship . It ruins the person who was cheated on, the people closest to them, and even some of those outside the inner circle. It’s a sad state of affairs that this man had to face when his beloved mother-in-law had an affair . When he helped the woman during her time of need, his husband and brothers-in-law immediately took it as a sign of betrayal ....
Most of us associate solo trips with single people. But parents need some quality alone time, too! In fact, 77% of Americans believe that mom and dad should go on trips without kids. What’s more, experts say that parents should travel without each other as well – it’s a great way to reduce everyday stress and friction in the relationship. One young family had a similar arrangement , but one day, the dad sprang up his solo trip plans on the mom unexpectedly....
If they’re comfortable, cat and dog costumes can be absolutely brilliant, but we rarely see anything like them for smaller critters like guinea pigs. That is, until we saw Fuzzberta. This adorable guinea pig diva loves to put on costumes and share photos for all of her Instagram fans (of which there are more than 20,000). Fuzzberta, together with her big sister MiniGuineaPig (MPG), often host other animals on their Instagram too, so be sure to take a look!...
There’s something about airports that brings out the very worst in people. Maybe it’s the security lines, maybe it’s the overpriced food and water, or maybe it’s the fact that nobody wants to be awake and functioning before 7AM, especially not to the soundtrack of a toddler screeching like it’s auditioning for a low-budget horror movie. One Redditor recently went through this exact experience, and let’s just say it turned into the kind of drama that no one orders with their morning coffee and bagel ....
Do you remember that dad who keeps stroking a shotgun whenever his daughter’s date comes by? Chances are, you don’t wanna be him. Don’t get me wrong, I know you would do anything to protect your child. But what if there’s a more effective way than the shotgun? Nicole, the woman behind the blog jthreeNMe, recently published an open letter to all men who are raising girls, highlighting what they should focus on when preparing them for their love life....
I’ve always been a Star Wars fan and over time I realized that certainly, I wasn’t the only one. As a photographer, I decided to explore my passion and I discovered a reality beyond my expectations: a lightsaber academy. Here students regularly train to perfect their fighting techniques to perform shows with choreographies inspired by the movies of the Saga, in wich they play characters of their creation. So I decided to create a project that I named “Star Wars: Beyond cosplaying”...
Two years ago I met Yoerie Custers by chance and while we started talking I found out he was a photographer too. His biggest passion is going to abandoned places throughout Europe, to photograph the decayed beauty of neglected buildings. He also showed me his book ‘Journey to Forgotten Dreams’ containing his best works and an idea was born. How will these places look when I edit animals into them?...
Without a shadow of a doubt, most people want to be so successful that they don’t have to worry about their finances . But it’s not just fancy cars, huge houses, expensive trips, and luxury clothes that they want. They also want to support their family . Especially their parents, who raised and provided for them. However, it can be beyond frustrating to realize that some of the hard-earned cash you send your parents every month ends up being transferred to your siblings… for partying....
Tipping culture in the United States is bizarre to a lot of people. Even if you are from there, the idea that you are required (well, not technically but at the very least obligated ) to tip over 15% at any restaurant is a bit strange. Ideally, you’ll tip 20-25% if you receive excellent service or if you have a large party, but even if the service is not great, it is insulting to leave too little....
“It’s Christmas. A time when friends and family come together to celebrate the season.” That’s the wholesome start to a sketch shown on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ with beloved actor Ryan Reynolds and, yup you guessed it, comedian Jimmy Fallon. The video then takes a hilarious turn, as we should expect from Reynolds and Fallon for whom humor is a way of life. The point of the video is to make fun of guests who stay far too long by showing how you can get them to leave with a ‘get the f*** out of my house candle....
Michael Stokes, a fine arts photographer in California, takes a bold new approach to veteran portrait photography by taking powerful and sexually charged photos of confident veterans posing proudly with their amputated body parts and prosthetics. “Some people will say to me ‘Oh, this is really helpful to their self-esteem,’ or, ‘You’re making them feel like men again,’” Stokes told MTV. “These guys have come to me very healed and ready to take the world on....
We’ve all heard about Japan’s extraordinary ‘capsule hotels,’ but photographer Won Kim’s intimate photos give us a personal look at another set of tight living quarters – a hidden tiny apartment hotel in Tokyo that was designed as a guesthouse for backpackers. Kim stumbled across the hotel when backpacking across Japan, and returned two years later to photograph it. He lived there for several months, befriending residents and photographing the small, womb-like spaces that they call home....

I’ve been passionate about photography ever since I put my hands on a DSLR when I was 17-years-old. I believe that photography was the element that kept my tears away from all the bullying, fears, negative emotions and breakdowns I have started being aware of since I became a teenager. With my best friend’s Bianca V. help, I was able to transpose those negative feelings, emotions, memories into photos. I have used a jar full of stones and pebbles in order to create a metaphor of my life, of my experiences – despite being heavy, the pebbles inside a transparent container makes something beautiful, just like life....
I was born in Limpopo, where wild sage scented the air and the distant roar of lions was part of the soundtrack of childhood. The bush isn’t just where I’m from — it’s who I am. It runs through my blood, and through my lens, it’s become my life’s work. Still, nothing could have prepared me for the quiet, overwhelming magic of the Okavango Delta. These 33 moments are my attempt to share what I saw and felt, the raw beauty, the unlikely tenderness, the awe....
