Castles Around the World. Part 3

"It is a pleasure to stand upon the shore, and to see ships tost upon the sea: a pleasure to stand in the window of a castle, and to see a battle and the adventures thereof below: but no pleasure is comparable to standing upon the vantage ground of truth."

Graphic Design and Illustration by ED Batista

ED Batista is a brazilian designer from Maringa who really likes art, architecture, photographs and good movies. Since he was a child, ED liked to draw abstract things, which he likes drawing until today. He also like to create new forms and concepts to please viewer's eyes. We already presented his work here back in April, The Digital Work of ED Batista, and since he has some new pieces, we are posting about his work again. :)

ED's work is pretty interesting since he transits into different formats and colors at his pieces. You can find pieces in grey tons, black and white and also some very colored ones, showing that an artist can transit between some different styles without losing it's personality! ED also works with graphic design, branding, motion design, illustration, photography and art directing.

Faces of rural poverty (38 pics)

Faces of rural poverty (38 pics)

This series of photos is a project by Carl Kiilsgaard, an American photographer, called The White Family.
The White family lives below the poverty line in a mobile home in eastern Kentucky and Carl Kiilsgaard has been visiting them for three years to document the rural poverty in the region through the eyes of this family.
Carl became an EPF finalist with his project. Some pictures are not easy to see but in all it’s a great work. Here’s what he says about it: “I would like my photographs to ask questions rather than present answers, to unlock emotions, and to be a part of the increasing dialogue in America dealing with social rights of the working and lower class.”

The annual Aerograph festival of painting on cars in Moscow - 2009 edition
This festival is held each year in Moscow and gathers lots of people. This year is the 5th edition.
Some cars are really well painted but I would not drive them. Not very discreet…

Huacachina - another great destination for summer vacations (38 pics)

Huacachina - another great destination for summer vacations (38 pics)
Huacachina is a small lost paradise located in the desert of the Ica region, in south-western Peru. There are only 115 inhabitants (1999).
The particularity of this village is that it has been built around a small natural lake in the desert called the "Oasis of America.”
The two main activities in addition to swimming are sandboarding and taking dune buggy rides on sand dunes that stretch several hundred feet high.
Going on vacations in an oasis is rather cool and frankly, I would be glad to spend one week or two over there this summer!
