Controversial Magazine Covers

A massive list spanning from 1930s. Although controversial, most of the covers are pretty creative.

Nova Camera, DSLR
California College of the Arts student Erin Fong developed this DSLR camera concept to update the digital camera form factor. Nova camera takes the standard DSLR format and modifies it by splitting the control over two arms putting all the control right at the user’s finger tips. The arms can move around the central lens allowing a multitude of picture taking positions. The design is perfect for right and left-handed users and can even be operated with only one handle, borrowing from the camera phone style of picture taking. The design aims to explore the form of the camera now that it isn’t dictated by the conventions of film. DesignBoom

The dark side of Dubai - Johann Hari, Commentators - The Independent

An excellent piece of investigative journalism on Dubai and its sense of hope.

A very long article, separated into sections that documents the various issues that have been hidden from the public eye.

It is a massive eye opener, for anyone including me, the extent of what Dubai is and how it was made. It is one of false perception.

The current financial issues that are faced by Dubai is only the tip of the iceberg. And as time goes on, more will surface from the creditors and more importantly the people working in Dubai.

“Dont you always feel that after Mondays (M) and Tuesdays (T), the rest of the week feels a lot like a WTF?”

Photography by Otto Kitchens

Otto K, a photographer based in Atlanta, USA has a pretty interesting photoblog in which viewers are treated to a photo that is quite interesting and enjoyable.

Every photo is quite different in terms of subject matter and style

I love what he said about photography.

“I photograph because I have a passion for it. It’s that simple.”

Garuda (via kMuru)

Through the Viewfinder (TtV) photo of a Garuda statue that I bought a few years back in Bali. Read about it below.

Garuda @ Wikipedia

The rain was pretty massive during the weekend. I was indoors, bored to shits, so I thought I’ll dust off my Kodak Duaflex for some TtV shooting.

I need a better background I guess, as I wanted the statue to be illuminated from the back giving the background the washed out look.
