Unpublished Color Photos from WWII War Photographer Robert Capa

Ryan Nance October 28, 2024

An amazing set of more than 125 previously unpublished color photographs by war photojournalist and co-founder of Magnum, Robert Capa is being presented at the International Center of Photography in New York.

“Capa regularly used colour film from the 1940s until his death in 1954. Some of these photographs were published in magazines of the day, but the majority have never been printed, seen, or even studied. Over the years, this aspect of Capa’s career has virtually been forgotten. With over 100 contemporary color prints by the famous photojournalist, Capa in Color presents this work an integral part of his post-war career and fundamental in remaining relevant to magazines.”

Staggeringly Beautiful Night Sky Photos by Nicholas Buer

Ryan Nance February 21, 2014

I am speechlessly in love with these night sky photos from landscape and astro photographer Nicholas Buer.

Buer:

"Gazing up at the night sky has always filled me with a sense of wonder. Since advancements in DSLR technology I have been able to capture the night sky in a way I previously thought impossible and ever since my first successful capture of the milky way, I have been hooked."
