C-Photography

Anybody with a driver's license, or anyone who has ever walked on a road, knows that potholes are one of the worst things you can encounter. These road sores pop out of nowhere and ruin your tires, not to mention make the surrounding neighborhood look aged and bent out of shape. A group of friends from Kaunas, Lithuania know this problem all too well. They call themselves "Z999," and have come up with a creative photo series that they hope will draw the government's attention toward the eyesores that are the potholes in their neighborhood. The photographers, Arturas Artiusenka and Eurika Balciute were able to capture hilarious situations of the community utilizing the potholes in exaggerated ways.

Tools probably aren't going to fix this one 

Fishing with friends

No diving - shallow waters

A night out by the hot tub? 

Ugh oh

Personally, I love perusing the Internet for cool pictures. Sometimes they're pictures of cats, sometimes they're informative diagrams on the state of the environment.
Today I've put together an assortment of random interesting pictures for you, ranging from historical photos to architectural design to natural phenomena. Enjoy!

2. Iranian women during the Shah's White Revolution.

3. A butterfly with the number 89 on its wing.

4. A paper USB. 

5. This truly innovative Asian version of Pringles.

Nobody wants chip crumbs on their hands. 

6. This brilliant invention. 

This seems like the beginning of a game of "Would You Rather." 

7. This startling divide. 

That would be the border between the United States and Mexico. 

8. This meeting of legends.

A teenaged LeBron James meeting Michael Jordan. 

9. This stunning photo of village life in Transylvania. 

Which is a region in Romania, FYI. 

10. This indestructible vehicle.

This is what happens when you rear-end a Tesla Model S. 

11. This house that uses no eaves troughs. 

The water is directed to one corner of the house and drops down into a basin that collects all of the runoff. 

12. This odd but beautiful discovery.

For the record, the pink flowers did not steal the life force of the blue one. At least I hope they didn't. 

13. Young Gandhi. 

Who was a lawyer, BTW. 

14. This progressive alternative to a fire escape. 

Found in a Korean hotel room. 

15. This high school is doing it right.  

Putting in skateboard racks means students won't have to bring them inside, therefore nobody will be skating down the halls, and no one risks having their board stolen.

I don't know about you, but after I take a shot of anything, whether it be vodka, tequila, or jäger, I will not be making a pretty face. Sure, doing shots gets the job done on a Saturday night, but that burn, I'm not about it. 

Photographer #Tim #Charles captures the exact moment of pain and disgust that I am talking about in his photo series "#Shot #Face." #ViralSchool writes that Charles says the idea of "temporary mental and physical discomfort to reach a potentially better end result is interesting."

Charles' exploration of this concept is quite original, in that most shot-takers probably don't look that deeply into what they are aiming to do. Although, most will spend some time regretting their actions the morning after.

Christopher McKenney is a Pennsylvania-based photographer who specializes in horror surrealist photography. His work is both haunting and beautiful, and features incomplete men who appear to be trapped between two worlds. 

Each photograph seems to embody the internal struggles of men, balancing the visible and the invisible. When speaking about the image featuring the man with a lampshade over his head, McKenney explains, "This picture represents people having ideas but covering them up in fear of failure or what other people will think."

As you take a look through McKenney's chilling surrealist art, consider the symbolism and meaning behind each piece.
