The Deep Feeling Painting of Shin Jong Sik



Shin Jong Sik is a popular water color artist due to its vibrant and transparent colors painting. His beautiful paintings really express the colorful, dignified and deep feeling.  He has taken flowers, fruits, dishes and hemp cloth as materials. He does not compose as they are seen but recomposes with novel ideas. His admirable talent of lighting the hue reaches the vivid expression of emphasizing the main materials according to hue and the background of his paintings. In his lovely composition you can easily feel the delicacy, flimsiness and boldness are coexisting which are raising affections of appreciators. Shin Jong Sik paints exclusively with Mission Gold Watercolors; a new premium line of watercolors distributed in the United States and Canada. The talented painter is an artist and is the first time user of Mission watercolor in Korea. He had used three different brands of imported watercolor paints until 2009, when he wholly turned to mission after monitoring mission watercolor.

Absolutely Stunning Beauty of Grand Canyon Never Seen Like That Before

The Grand Canyon is 277 miles of remarkable beauty situated in Arizona. It is an absolute must for your bucket list if you haven’t had the pleasure to digest the scenery to date. The majestic beauty of Grand Canyon is the result of nearly 200 billion years of history. How it actually was formed remains a debate by many geologists. This is simply stunning and incredible picture of Grand Canyon never seen that before. If you look very carefully, I think you can see a lightning sprite on the top of the clouds. Sprites are very difficult to photograph because usually the top of a cloud is obscured. The sprite in the photograph is partially obscured by the cloud top here. This is really an amazing photograph and unimaginable beauty. Photo Credit

Norm the Pug Flies Up, Up and Away



Art director Robert Jahns has taken a photograph of him and formed this whimsical image of Norm strapped to a flamboyant bunch of balloons. Watch as he flies up, up and away. He writes this is Norm, and he does almost everything to have the best view of the city. Norm is the dog of @jermzlee who posts absolutely jubilant images of him on his feed. It was a pleasure to edit one of Norm's images some time ago. Every image on his feed will make you smile and I hope this one did as well.

Iceberg at Jökulsárlón during sunrise, Iceland


I was 2nd person on the beach that morning in Jökulsárlón during sunrise, Iceland. Some other photographer beat me for 5 minutes.  I was so obsessed with photographing icebergs and the ocean waves brushing against them, that I totally forgot time.  Actually I spent 2 hours there, and by the time I recognized, my waterproof boots and socks had been soaking wet, and my feet were cold and numb.  Nevertheless I still enjoyed this place a lot.

Hlauptungufoss is an unknown waterfall near Bruarfoss Iceland



Hlauptungufoss is an unknown waterfall near Bruarfoss Iceland.  I spent almost two hours in searching of Bruarfoss on my second day in Iceland, but due to inadequate and inaccurate information online, I didn't find it.  Nevertheless, I’ve succeeded finally and discovered this beautiful spot along the Bruar River where the clouds disclosed the snow mountain in the background.  It was better place than I was expected.  Of course, I was lucky to find Bruarfoss the second week with 6 participants of my Iceland Photography Workshop.  We were all excited that our hard work almost knee high snow trek paid off, but in some way this unfamiliar waterfall was still special.Photo Source: Melinda Shi

Sunrise in Seljalandsfoss Iceland



This is photo of sunrise in Seljalandsfoss Iceland.  If you want to see this beautiful place, you'll take a two week trip with snow or rain storm every day, when you see the colors of sky like (in this photo), I can bet you'll feel agitated.  The photographer (Belinda Shi) says; I didn't know about this until the end of my trip to Iceland.  Fortunately, I was assiduous enough to capture every single color I could see every morning and evening, provided it was not snowing or raining.  That of course was at the expense of sleep hours for the first week, and an average I normally slept 3-4 hours every day, but every single minute of my waking hours was well worth it.  The following photograph was taken on Day third of my trip in front of Seljalandsfoss.  I have driven back and forth this waterfall located in South Iceland at least four times during my trip, and every time was a brand new experience.
