How many photos have ever been taken? | 1000memories : Thanks to Shawn Blanc for the link to these incredible statistics.
Today, we’re excited to announce the release of one of the largest revamps to the Instagram app since it launched nearly a year ago.
Fantastic update to my favorite way to share photos. The live filters are great.
On the literary horizon is an extraordinary book entitled “Waits/Corbijn – Photographs 1977-2010” featuring an array of beautiful artistic images of Tom Waits taken by the renowned photographer Anton Corbijn. Tom Waits and Anton Corbijn are a perfect artist – artist match. Their 30-year collaboration now yields this book of portraits by Corbijn plus more than 50 pages filled up with images/writing by Waits himself.
Wonderful photos of Graceland by Chris Glass. Thanks to Daring Fireball for the link.
Especially relevant given my viewing of Jim Jarmusch’s Mystery Train last night. Which was beautiful beautiful beautiful, by the by.
Found Functions - Exposes the beauty of mathematics through the beauty of nature. Love this and all the rest of her work.
Via Kottke, who got it from snarkmarket.
We Love You So – Where The Wild Things Are – Spike Jonze: Anna Shelton - It’s the ever-so-slightly washed-out look of these photographs that lends a lonely resonance to them. I love it.

What’s a photochrom? Published primarily from the 1890s to 1910s, these prints were created by the Photoglob Company in Zürich, Switzerland, and the Detroit Publishing Company in Michigan. The richly colored images look like photographs but are actually ink-based photolithographs, usually 6.5 x 9 inches.
I love the washed-out, bronze look of these. Check out the whole set.](http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ktoefnrqus1qzxralo1_500.jpg)

D-Day - Normandie 1944 : Men of D-Day : Incredible before and after photos of Normandy on D-Day and Normandy today. The photographer deserves credit for getting the angles almost perfect every time.
