25 Creative Photo Manipulation works and Digital Art works by Alberto Seveso
Alberto Seveso, The passion for graphic arts started in 1990s because I was really fascinated from the graphic of skate decks and the cover of music CD of metal bands. From this passion I started to think about how reproduce this kind of artwork. I ever had a computer in my home, from the times of the Commodore Vic20, and I kept thinking that my computer could be useful in this way. I mean that I can use the computer to make art and not only to play! Now I work as a freelance in my hometown, Portoscuso, Sardinia-Italy for small, medium and big agencies. Represented by Central Illustration agency and Bernstein & Andriulli.

20 Insanely Creative Photo Manipulation Graphic Designs
Throughout the ages, artists found ways to express their creativity and more importantly, themselves through different forms of art… now that we are in an era of digital revolution is no exception. Photo manipulation is a technique where an artist (graphic designer) uses different photos or images to create a whole new scenario using a graphic manipulation application (e.g. Photoshop). It can also be a single photo or image that through the use of a design application was enhanced. More often than not, the scenarios created are unrealistic but visually believable.

What If Facebook Started Charging Facebook Users?
Have you seen Facebook stock lately? It's no where near where it IPO'd at. And since that means Facebook isn't worth as much, the hilarious folks at Jest realized that means Facebook needs to start earning some cash moneys... by charging for Facebook.
Can you imagine how many options Facebook could offer if they decided to make Facebook cost money? Jest did. Things like Facebook Pro which simplifies Facebook privacy settings and lets you see who's creeping on your page, Friends Plus which hooks you up with celebrities, Facebook Gold which effectively turns your page into MySpace and so much more. This is the future of a failing Facebook. Ain't it nice?

This Is the Future of Medical Imaging
Forget x-rays, bin the ultrasound, and say goodbye to MRI as you know it. The future of medical imaging is on its way, and it will give doctors a startlingly realistic view of what's happening inside your body.
In fact, the idea of throwing out those existing imaging technologies might be a little premature, because the future will rely on all of them. The idea, you see, is to develop new ways to combine the huge quantities of data they all provide into ultra-realistic images. While that's already possible to an extent, the rapid development of computational power means that they're going to become ever more life-like. Writing in a paper about the future of medical imaging, Charl Botha from Delft University of Technology, Netherlands, explains:

Sci-fi Photo Manipulation
Modern software applications, like Photoshop and 3d Studio MAX, open a whole new way of image production and editing. Human imagination is really boundless if armed with enough tools and instruments to turn all the creative ideas, generated in the brains, into live art samples. Surely, we cannot change the reality, but we can try making this in the cyber world. Image manipulation at Photoshop is one of the ways to do so.
After the launch of CS5, Photoshop gives digital artists and designers even more tools to manipulate images and create the most futuristic and unusual visual effects. We have gathered some of the works to illustrate what can be done with images and how far human imagination can fly. These pictures do not work only as a manifestation of high capabilities of modern image editing applications, like Photoshop, but they are also very inspirational and motivational themselves.

Tips To Create Amazing Pinterest Pictures
Pinterest is a fairly new social networking site (closed beta launched on March 2010) whose main service is to share photos, videos and links. What is most intriguing about it is that it allows users to create and manage theme-based image and video collections on what they called “pinboards”.
Imagine a notice board or a pinboard, only it’s all done virtually. So instead of cutting magazines / newspapers and pinning clippings or articles on scrap books or notice boards, you can now do it on Pinterest without the mess and also share them with friends too.

Understanding the differences in High-Def formats
High definition videos have been a hot topic for years. With plasma televisions and HD video recorders filling our houses and hands, we often crave the better quality associated with HD. The challenge is understanding that not all HD is created equal.
This great video by the Technology Evangelist breaks down the differences in the formats and shows why 720p is better than 1080i.
How to Enhance & Retouch an Image
Sometimes we have a precious moment in our lives captured in the wrong way. This is where Photoshop is used to fix this problem — to enhance and retouch our precious, yet less-than-perfect image to become precious perfect ones.
Highest resolution image ever shot of Earth
While a beautiful and instantly recognizable photograph, NASA's Blue Marble shot is actually many different shots pieced together. A new photograph goes where Earth snapshots have not gone before with the highest resolution single photograph ever taken of our home planet.
Neither NASA nor the European Space Agency can take credit for the beautiful image; nope, props go to Russian weather satellite Electro-L.

The BBC is reporting on the discovery of a mammoth carcass found preserved in Siberian ice for at least 10,000 years.

Video of the mammoth being uncovered can be seen on the BBC website.

This Image of a Soldier Walking On Air Is Simply Awesome
I really like this image of an airman jumping out of a USAF HC-130P/N King cargo aircraft. He really seems to be walking on air, like Wile E. Coyote running off a cliff while chasing the Roadrunner.
He's an airman of the 820th Base Defense Group participating in a static line jump at Moody Air Force Base, Georgia, on March 21, 2012.
