Switzerland-based photographer Thomas Leuthard is a master of street photography, and he was gracious enough to let the Cooperative of Photography follow him around Salzburg to document a few of his tricks. Some of them are easy tips you might already know, while others are things you’ll kick yourself for not thinking of… but almost all of them are...

We all love photos taken at just the right time, place, and/or angle… …and luckily for us, British photographer Denis Cherim is attempting to do an entire series of such happenstance in what he calls the Coincidence Project. I’ve picked out 17 of my favorites and proudly displayed them for you below: #17. Moon-in-one. #16....

Bored Panda called their version of this list “20+ Reasons Why Husbands Can’t Be Trusted”. That seems a bit too “King of Queens” for me (and for the list), and, once again, I can’t abide the rankings established by voters… so I dug through all 84 to rank up my list. Here are my top 25,...

It’s one thing to talk about love and the endurance of it, but quite another to see it manifest. Aside from being clever and fun, these couples have created a unique testimony to both love and endurance that says in the blink of an eye what might otherwise take years to explain.

So, he started pulling pics of black women with natural locks from Instagram and adding natural elements like flowers, space, trees, and leaves in a series he calls “Black Girl Magic.” The results are a viral sensation and a celebration of natural beauty as embraced...

The Auschwitz Museum has thousands of mugs as part of their historical collection, but the staff found a surprise when they were preparing one of the 70 year-old relics for an exhibit. The mug, which had been looted by the Nazis from Jews who were deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau, held a secret…. A ring and a necklace had been well-secured...

Freddy the tortoise lost 85 percent of his shell in a forest fire. I, for one, did not know that is what a tortoise looks like under its shell. But clearly that is terrible for Frankie – so the Animal Avengers custom designed a new shell for him, and he was fitted with the hand-painted finished...

On July 19, 1957, five military men stood in the desert at the Nevada Test Site while a nuclear bomb was detonated 10,000 feet above their heads. A sixth lucky soul recorded it.  Before the missile, everybody is squinting and looking for the jets that will fire the nuke. That’s an air-to-air 2 kiloton nuke, and I assume...

ASTER (or Advanced Spaceborne Thermal and Reflection Radiometer) is a super cool piece of equipment that has allowed American and Japanese scientists and engineers to take some badass photos. I’ve sorted through the geology section already, and now, I bring you the top 17 photos (according to hits as of mid-May 2016) of Earth. Even though I...
