How to Photograph Fireworks: Tips From National Geographic Photographers
- Yasha Wallin posted in Creativity, Living and Photography
National Geographic’s photographers share their tips on how to take the best photos of fireworks for the upcoming holiday. Read on for advice like: “The long exposures required for firework photography mean slow shutter speeds. Keep your camera motionless by using a sturdy tripod and a shutter release cord. When shooting a scene that includes not just the sky but also other elements like a cityscape, keeping the horizon line straight is particularly important.”
Our business editor Tim Fernholz talks about Facebook's acquisition of Instagram, but we also like to highlight anytime we can use a .gif for post art on our site.
As we always say, come for the filtered Zuckerberg’s, stay for the crisp Fernholz writing.

Is Instagram Really Worth $1 Billion? Yes—If You’re Facebook - Business - GOOD
I am a poet. I am head over heels for a woman who loves photography, poetry, Mary Oliver and me. Life is GOOD. However, the days where all you want to do is press rewind or fast forward or simply skip the day altogether, exist. Sometimes those days come often. This quote reminds me to leave space, time and a window open, so that the air of disappointment can leave the room. It reminds me to leave space in my heart, so that love can leave its clutter all over the floor of my chamber. It reminds me, that it is always GOOD. It reminds me, thank you Mary. Thank you for putting these words together. They save me! #poet #poetry #goodpoetry #dowhatyoulove #maryoliver http://ift.tt/1i1zRay
How Taking Photos Made Me Love My Adopted Hometown
Taking thousands of photos hasn’t made me learn the city any faster—if it takes 10 years to become a real New Yorker, as former mayor Ed Koch insists, it must require at least 15 to turn into an Angeleno, camera or not. But in a city full of secret worlds, my lens captures details I might have otherwise missed. Too often, people reserve photography for when they’re traveling—we don’t expect to be surprised in our own hometowns, whether we’ve lived there for one year or 30. But when I’ve got a camera in my hand, I can use that same spirit of exploration that guides a trip abroad to keep things exciting at home.

Creative Mornings: Masterpieces You Can Eat for Breakfast
- Yasha Wallin wrote in Food, Art and Photography
Ida Skivenes likes to play with her food. And lucky for us, because the Oslo, Norway-based artist crafts the most stunning homages to modern art through a few simple ingredients and a lot of detail. For her “Art Toast Project,” she’s been remaking some of the world’s most famous works of art in a unique medium: jam, cheese, peanut butter, and other food stuffs using toast as her canvas.
In this ongoing project, with new work posted on her Instagram account regularly, she attempts to make art more accessible to the public, and perhaps play on the concept of “food porn” that so many Instagrammers flood their feeds with. The artist explains, “What inspired me initially was the literal meaning of ‘food art,’ in that one creates artworks with food. So I combined that with my personal interest in modern art and set out to see if it was possible to recreate famous painters masterpieces without dishonoring them completely. It’s a way of sharing my love of both food and art together.”
