From a series entitled It’s A Dog’s Life by German photographer Ralph Hargarten who sez:
Most dogs have human names, so why not shooting them like humans. In my pictures I tried to catch different expressions as I would do with people as well. These are the results.
Photographer Joseph Ford’s rather pleasing mashups of crumpled duds and aerial landscapes. Some are complex (the dunes and sweater in pic7), some are subtle (the single plaid square matching a section of roof in pic1) and one juxtaposes two complementary aerials (pic2) because that’s also nice.

We traveled to [Bourbon Street] New Orleans for Southern Decadence and came across this. It was actually a practice protest for the festival the following day. Got to love their signs though! I have been called many things but never a threat to National Security!

A friend of mine took this on her phone while walking one evening recently in Lucan. She said the guy looked around at her and and looked away when she took out her phone. It was around 7pm. Did anyone else see him?

Czech-born County Clare resident George Karbus is the overall winner of the British Irish Czech Banner Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition for this photo of a bottlenose dolphin.
George explains:
“The photograph was taken in the most intimidating and surf-heavy spot on the Coast of Northern Ireland. I encountered this playful dolphin that suddenly started to surf the deep tube inside the waves. Each time the dolphin got into the wave, I dived underneath, held my breath and waited for the moment when he would swish through a silver barrel close enough to my lens. Water visibility is always very limited in Ireland, and I was very lucky to get a shot like this”
Our favourite part is where they misspelled ‘sammidge’.
