By now, most of us are aware of or somehow indirectly or directly involved with Hurricane Katrina . Or, most of us have seen pictures of hurricanes that blasted the East or Southeastern coasts that weren’t named Katrina. As contradictory as it sounds, many pictures of hurricanes, pictures of hurricanes’ aftermath, and aerial and other shots have been published or posted, pictures of hurricanes that are beautiful in an uncanny way but beautiful nonetheless-provocative, poignant, or perplexing as they are.
Accompanying the news and scientific technicalities and details at NASA’s site are pictures of hurricanes. (http://www.nasa.gov/vision/ earth/lookingatearth/hurricane_2005.html) They are the representations of these awesome phenomena, and yet they have an eerie beauty and majesty to them.
Individual pictures of hurricanes are as impressive as collections all over the web. For example, photo coverage of Hurricane Lili is featured online at (http://www.vivasancarlos.com/hurricane.html), depicting views photographed during Expedition Five.
In similar respect, I want to direct you to a site with pictures of hurricanes that, with all due reverence, have been creatively altered. Go to the site Worth1000.com (with which I have no affiliation, just appreciation for the brilliance of the artists), and do a search for pictures of hurricanes or browse the Best of or Contest categories. At Worth1000, besides thousands of modified cars (two cars melded to create an awesome prototype), gender swap creations (a celebrity of one gender is modified to have the attributes of the opposite gender), Renaissance painting revisited (the artists change the faces and bodies of a classic piece of artwork, so that a movie stars face and body takes the place of the original), and many many more oddities, you will find categories of photo-shopped, modified, creative constructions that turn straight pictures of hurricanes into artful, sometimes clever, sometimes commemorative images.
One image wherein the artist uses pictures of hurricanes features a crumpled trailer as an artist’s rendering of the trailer contents. The one-dimensional switch is eerily apt in representing the devastating potency of hurricanes. In another Photoshopped vision, the artist makes use of the prompt tow work with the elements, and shows the shoreline 100 miles away from a hurricane. In yet another set of pictures of hurricanes, an artist shows before and after images-said by many viewers to be some of the most awesome pictures of hurricanes ever.
Again such photos of hurricanes, in this writer’s opinion, are not apathetic attempts at attacking, minimizing, or disregarding the responses and feelings of those left in a hurricane’s aftermath but are testaments to the near omnipotent magnificence of the hurricane as we unfortunately know it.

Aerobic Pictures
... different. It is like the aerobic pictures give everyone a burst of confidence that makes them practically shine. I know the gleam of sweat, and can tell it from the gleam of confidence. This here is the gleam of confidence. They look at those aerobic pictures and stand up straighter, work that much harder, and I believe, go home feeling better about themselves. Even the aerobic exercise classes seem to go better with the pictures around the room. I have even taken down my other motivational posters and put Pictures Of Hurricanes up the aerobic pictures around my cubicle in the gym. Even when I am not working out, the pictures of fit, trim people doing their aerobics workouts seems to convince me to put a little bit more into whatever I am working on at the moment. There are many types of decorations which are...

Animal Photos
... but the reasons might be things that you have never thought about. One of the greatest things about animal photos is Pictures Of Hurricanes that they really can capture any emotion that you can think about. People are often reserved about showing what is going on inside them, but reserve is not really anything that shows up too frequently among the members of the animal kingdom. In animal photos, we have the chance to see practically any emotion, from the tenderness of a mother cat caring for her young, to the fierceness of a lion pouncing for the kill, to the sly disdain of a baboon, leaving its friends behind for new fun. Many people believe that we are not really seeing these expressions in animal photos, and that what we are seeing is just a reflection of our own emotions that we want to pin on animals, but anyone who has spent any time...
Bridal Jewelry
... personal attendant at a wedding. The bride was my best friend's daughter. She asked me to be her personal attendant because we have always been close, and she knows that I am a stickler for details. She wanted to have a perfect wedding day. I had cautioned her not to set herself up to be disappointed. There are so many variables that can happen when planning a wedding, that there is no way that everything will be perfect. I told her that she would have the best day if she was able to go with the flow of events. The day started out quite rocky. The photographer was also a perfectionist and he asked the bride to remove her bridal jewelry for some of the outdoor pictures. He was concerned that the crystals in the jewelry would cause a glare with the photos taken in the sun. The bride thought it would look...
Andy Warhol Pictur
... the Time Capsule 21 Exhibition and other sections of the Andy Warhol Museum (although the navigation is absurdly labyrinthine, so be patient, especially if you have a low-speed ISP). There are also Andy Warhol pictures not reproducing art done by him but photos of him (besides those stunning self-portraits, that is). The most classic is, for example, the shot of Andy (looking like the founder of the Beatnik Movement, if you will) done by the brilliant and exacting Annie Leibovitz We would be remiss, however, to neglect the Andy Warhol pictures that are motion pictures-films the artist made that were hugely impacting and subsequently popular when he made them in the late sixties and seventies and that have actually achieved in many instances and places cult status: consider for example the...

American Photo Magazine
... myself, and like many in my field, I like to think of myself as an artist first, and a professional second. I do do photography of weddings and other events to pay the bills, however I thought that since I do not intend to spend my whole career as a commercial photographer, I could get by on what I knew as an artist. But once I subscribed to my first American photo magazine, I was quite surprised. I did not really realize how much I was missing out on in terms of professional development until I first thumbed through my American photo magazine, and saw that I was falling seriously behind in my chosen profession. There is not much for non Pictures Of Hurricanes photographers in American photo magazines, but some of them do have fascinating pictures which you can look at and enjoy for their artistic merit. My wife reads my American photo magazine all of the time, even though she has no interest in pictures...
Desktop Picture
... I even enjoyed just leaving it blank, as whatever I put up there would just irk me, and I did not have time to spend my days searching for a desktop picture which was sufficient to please my jaded palate. But, as time went on, I found my search for the perfect desktop wallpaper consuming more and more of my waking hours. Pictures of sandy beaches and ocean waves would dominate my computer screen for one week and then, the very next week, suddenly it would be something quite different. Cuddly bunnies would vie for my attention as I searched ceaselessly for the most perfectly adorable desktop picture which I could find. But alas, it was never enough, and perfection still continued to elude my efforts....
Cybershot Digital Camera
... that wonderful option of developing our film for free on our personal computers. Are you up to date with your photography skills? Sure, we all love and need to take various photos of our families, friends and loved ones, but not all of us want to deal with all that old-school mess. Why should we when we currently have the cybershot digital camera? I first invested in one of these compact beauties about four years back. Now, Pictures Of Hurricanes I will say that I'm not disappointed to say the least. It's just so much easier than the retro film cameras. Picture this; no more purchasing rolls of film, no more worrying about the camera opening before the film is finished, no more taking those rolls to the local developer, and especially no more paying to have film developed. Now if that's not ideal, I don't know what is. These days I can literally snap a shot of my daughter and upload it to my...
Collage Picture Frames
... your hard work guests may still not pick them up to take a look. An alternative to the time and effort a scrapbook requires Pictures Of Hurricanes is using collage picture frames to hold family memories. This has worked out well for me, and it can be a great gift to give when you just aren’t sure what to get. I buy large collage picture frames each time we have a new occasion that I wish to remember in detail. I choose among the pictures for the very best ones, and those are the ones I print out on my computer or have done at the local photo shop. I put them in the collage picture frames and then I add anything else that might pertain to the event. This might be something like ticket stubs from a show or any keepsake from a vacation. It’s not possible to do for every event, but I always do it for the very special occasions. That way everyone can see our special memories right there on the wall...
Digital Photographny
... pointers: Ever see a fantastic scene outside your bay window at home or your car window and wonder whether you can shoot a good picture through glass? The answer is, yes, you can. All you need to do is stand as close as you can to the glass when you take the shot. This minimizes the effect of light reflecting on the shiny surface of the glass. Would you like to take some shots of rectangular paintings to put in an online gallery, but fear they'll come out resembling parallellograms instead of rectangles? Don't worry. Digital photography can work for you in this case if you line your camera and picture up so that they are perfectly parallel. Mounting the picture on the wall and the camera on a tripod so...
Flower Arrangements
... bride about having a long and happy marriage. I had framed some pictures that I had gotten from the mother of the bride and mother of the groom. I had pictures of the two of them growing up as well as pictures of the two of them on various vacations that they have taken together. My niece was so pleased with these that she decided to use them at the wedding reception also. We also ate a light lunch and had cake that I had also decorated with fresh flowers. The bridal shower was great fun to host. The guests complimented me on the beautiful flower arrangements and commented that they must have cost a lot of money to have so many flowers. I explained that I had done the flower arrangements myself and Pictures Of Hurricanes had bought the flowers at the farmers market. My niece has asked me to arrange flowers from the farmers market...
