Paris-born artist Thierry Cohen's series Villes Eteintes depicts major cities of the world with no light pollution, no lights of any kind. Thierry employs a technique that requires him to document the exact time, angle, latitude and longitude of each exposure and then track the rotation of the earth to locations with clear night skies such as the Mojave, Sahara, and Atacama deserts. By combining the two images, the photographer has produced a truly profound work that asks us to reflect both spiritually and politically.

Miranda Kerr sizzles as a catholic school girl gone bad in this sinfully sexy 2010 photo shoot from Greg Kadel for French fashion mag Numéro. While Kerr's lissome body oozes with womanly sexuality, her wide doe eyes project a girlish innocence that is both alluring and unsettling, confirming Kadel's talent for capturing the oftentimes contrasting and even discomfiting urges behind the erotic impulse.  

Last Thursday Patrick O’Dell’s photo exhibit “Skateboard High School” opened at Known Gallery in Los Angeles. On hand to check out the show were skateboarders, actors, models and scenesters.
