Apparently there's a certain dog show circuit where people bring their poodles and transform them into different animals. Photographer Ren Netherland travels to these shows and captured these poor dogs with his lens. Doggone it, something about this just ain't right.

James Reynolds photographed the last (bland) meals of inmates on Death Row before their execution in his series, "Last Suppers."
I'm really digging the large panoramas stitched together by artist Peter Jansen. His expansive photo "North Wall of the Perito Moreno Glacier" in Patagonia would look particularly great on the wall of my future bachelor pad.
While browsing Flickr for an unconnected image, I came across this fact: Occasionally a hopelessly irreparable piano gets sacrificed to the fire gods.
Yasushi Nagao was the first non-American photographer to win the Pulitzer with this photograph snapped in Tokyo capturing the moment before seventeen-year-old Yamaguchi Otoya killed Socialist Party leader Asanuma Inajiro with a foot-long sword. Afterwards, while in detention, Yamaguchi wrote "Seven lives for my country. Ten thousand years for His Imperial Majesty, the Emperor!" on the wall and then hung himself. More background in this brief TIME Magazine article about the incident.
Nagao passed away a few months back on May 2, 2009.

Photography duo Pamela Reed and Matthew Rader's "Clown" series is really quite the stuff of nightmares for those people suffering from coulrophobia. Let your eyes gaze on these clowns for a few seconds each for the full subtle animated effect to take place.

Homer is a pet French bulldog that hangs out at his owner's 360SEE art gallery in Chicago where he often draws the admiring camera lens of strangers who often stop to take photos of him. The owner decided to take photos of people taking photos of his (admittedly cute) dog and post them at Photos of People Taking Photos of My Dog.

The bundled couple pictured in this iconic photograph snapped by Burk Uzzle from Woodstock in 1969 are still together forty years later! Nick and Bobbi Ercoline married a couple years after the famous music festival.

Really loving this photograph by Bas Princen of a Houston building perfectly reflecting the horizon.
