Pan Am retrospect

A great retrospective view of the Pan Am history, from the fabulous cookiesound…

The carrier launched first class travelling and offered their passengers in-flight movies to pass the time. In its best day’s in the 70′s, Pan Am transmitted the glamor of the beautiful & rich. Fashion was created just for flight purposes. Luxurious interior design, huge seats, sumptuous food, charming service and spacious smoking saloons; all of this was supposed to make flying an adventure – which of course only very few people could afford.

New York, day to night in a single frame

A simple but brilliantly executed idea, show day and night in a single frame…

Photographer Stephen Wilkes has created a project called Day to Night where he merges together beautiful day and night photos of various iconic New York places seamlessly into one. How does he do it? For a minimum of 10 hours, he photographs one scene from the same perspective until he captures day to night within a single frame.

Frozen Bubbles by Emmanuel Coupe

Stunning photo…

This image was taken in winter time in a arid area of the Canadian Rockies. Temperatures where below -30 degrees Celsius yet because there was no snow fall the surface of the lake was uncovered allowing me to see and capture the bubbles (gas release from lake bed) that were trapped in the frozen waters.

Whilst this app has just arrived a day after I finished travelling on British Airways and sorely missing the ability to print my boarding card, this app delivered this and a whole lot more (plus it’s really quite pretty!) …

We first had a glimpse of the British Airways app during Microsoft’s Mango Preview Event. Well, it went live in the Marketplace today and looks like for those traveling British Airways, chasing your flights may have gotten a lot easier.
