Top 10 Richest Men In the World

Thanks for visiting! Use the RSS feed or e-mail subscription to keep up to date on what's happening on this site.
After our much popular article about richest women in the world. Today we’re going to tells you about top 10 richest men in the world.

No. 1 John D. Rockefeller (1839 - 1937)

Fortune: $323.4 billion
Standard Oil
You have to wonder how John D. Rockefeller would fare as a major player in Big Oil today. After all, he founded Standard Oil in 1870, and it wasn’t long before he dominated the industry. Naturally, some didn’t take kindly to that and the company was eventually found to have monopolized. Yet, for all Rockefeller’s detractors, the U.S.’s first billionaire was a serious philanthropist to education, medicine and science. From a legacy standpoint, however, he’s best remembered for his unfathomable wealth. Even today, the name connotes “money.”

Northern Lights or also known as Aurora Borealis named after the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for the north wind, Boreas, by Pierre Gassendi in 1621.

The origin of this mysterious and majestic natural phenomena have long sought the best minds of humanity. But only in the mid-twentieth century, it became clear that the auroras are formed by charged particles in space, "bombarding" the upper atmosphere of Earth. At high latitudes during the long night, there are an unusually beautiful aurora. An amazing play of colors accompanied by a fantastic phenomenon: the greenish-yellow color becomes purple, dark red.

Outstanding Photos Taken With a Mobile Phone

Thanks for visiting! Use the RSS feed or e-mail subscription to keep up to date on what's happening on this site.
They say the best camera is the one you have with you. Your mobile phone is always with you so I guess you could say it’s your best camera. Obviously, a mobile phone’s camera is no match for a professional level DSLR, but you might be surprised at the great pictures many people are taking with their cell phones. Not only are phone cameras getting better all the time, but there’s all sorts of apps you can get for many of them to edit and improve your pics.
In this post we’ll take a look at quite a number of outstanding photos taken with a camera phone. Some of the pics were edited using apps on the photographer’s phone while some weren’t. Feel inspired and don’t forget to take pictures!

Dull & Dreary Feelings of Autumn

Thanks for visiting! Use the RSS feed or e-mail subscription to keep up to date on what's happening on this site.
Autumn is often described as dull and rainy. Sometimes we take it for granted. We forget that fall can be just as beautiful as spring and there’s no other season in the year when we can see such a variety of colors. Hurrying to our offices and supermarkets and homes, we often do not notice what’s around us, especially when it gets darker earlier in the evenings. This contributes to us missing out on the splendor of the season. So we project those dull and dreary feelings we have on autumn. I devote this beautiful photo collection to all those who have missed too many beautiful autumn moments and I hope it will brighten your rainy day wherever in the world you are.

30 Dazzling Wild Animals Photography

Thanks for visiting! Use the RSS feed or e-mail subscription to keep up to date on what's happening on this site.
Showing one’s teeth doesn’t always mean they’re smiling for the camera. Animals tend to expose their teeth especially when it comes to territory and lack of food sources. The fight may end up harmless, but sometimes also very brutal. The opponent may bleed to death and this may seem merciless to us, but that’s how nature occasionally works. As a matter of fact, we tend to describe a merciless fight between humans as animal-like.
Taking close-up pictures like these can be highly risky, as animals don’t like any hindrance during their combats. For whatever reasons they may be fighting, this can injure the person or animal coming between them. Today we have come up with some dazzling shutterbug shots to inspire you and take you on a walk with us through the wild side. Enjoy with us some spectacular animal fighting moments!

Sometimes black and white photos are the most beautiful photographs we’ll ever see. They can paint a picture with mood and ambiance. They can turn our attention to subtle things like a look on a face. Sometimes it’s the absence of color and realizing what’s not there that makes us truly see what is.

Breathtaking Infrared Photography

Thanks for visiting! Use the RSS feed or e-mail subscription to keep up to date on what's happening on this site.
Infrared photography, one of the most fascinating photographic techniques, is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. The technique enables us to capture light that is invisible to the human eye. The first infrared photograph was taken by Professor Robert Williams Wood and was published in the Royal Photographic Society Journal in 1910 as an illustration for his paper.
Infrared photography became popular in 1960s, when several artists experimented with it to achieve some unusual and eye-catching effects. Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa and Donovan released albums with infrared photos on the covers.

Within a mile of New York's main airport, visitors can find cheap deals at JFK Airport hotels - and have cash left over for the rest of their vacations.

As New York City's main international airport, John F. Kennedy Airport (JFK) is circled by major chain hotels offering budget accommodations for bargain-hunting travelers.

That distance makes JFK Airport hotels a goldmine for bargain seekers who want to see the landmarks, museums and Broadway shows New York City has to offer without paying sky-high hotel rates in the city center. Though rarely providing luxury digs or amenities beyond the basics, JFK Airport hotels do offer comfortable, budget accommodations for leisure and business travelers, as well as proximity to the airport for early-morning flights.

Beautiful Dew Photography

Thanks for visiting! Use the RSS feed or e-mail subscription to keep up to date on what's happening on this site.
Dew drops, the water droplets condensed from the air, are a beautiful gift from Mother Nature. Dew drops have a novelty in them. They are vivid and delicate, warm and cold at the same time. They sparkle like pearls on the surface. Mornings become more refreshing and brisk when it is drenched in the dew. They are simply amazing… Capturing dew drops is considered to be the best illustration of macro photography.
To excel in dew photography, it you have to focus on curves, saturation, a bit of color adjustments, composition, lighting and an unsharp mask on the dew drops that are in focus. It is mostly done in longer exposures. But at the end it’s the talent and skills of the photographer which make the photos outstanding. In this post we present 50 refreshing images to brighten your day.

Bird photography is one of the most challenging types of nature photography. Since the subject is usually small, may not stay still, moves rapidly from branch to branch, sits in less than favorable lighting conditions and is extremely aware of an approaching photographer. So bird photography can be frustrating as well as rewarding. In this showcase we have collected beautiful examples of bird photography.
