Gallery Info: Self-Portraits Artistic photographs that use the photographer as the model. That is exactly what we have here. Full of wonderful photographers using themselves as the main subject . Come take a look!!
A quick guide for you to shooting self-portraits. I will teach you here few important basic things for self-portrait photography and also give few resources for portrait photography to continue learning.
Here are 100 (and a few more) of some very nice photographs on deviantART that I think should get some attention. Some already have a fair bit, but deserve it. So I'm giving them more.
There are two species of elephant the African and the Asian. The African elephant is the world's largest land mammal, measuring up to four metres high and usually weighing over six tonnes. The average Asian male elephant is shorter than his African counterpart at three metres high and weighing around five tonnes.
In the 1970s and 1980s international demand for ivory coupled with illegal trade spiralled out of control causing a catastrophic decline in African elephant populations. Poaching resulted in the population falling from an estimated 1.3 million animals in 1970 to just 600,000 by 1989.
Not all countries supported the ban. Some Zimbabwe, South Africa, Botswana and Namibia have retained healthy elephant populations and believe they should be allowed to export ivory. The ban remains in place but the elephant range states and CITES parties have agreed to develop monitoring programmes to determine trends in poaching and trade.
The Asian elephant lives in forests and is threatened more by habitat loss than by poaching (trade in Asian elephant products has been banned since 1975). Forests have been converted to agriculture, cutting off traditional seasonal movements of the elephants and creating conflicts between elephants and humans. Only 30,000-40,000 wild Asian elephants survive today, mostly in India. There are also 16,000 domesticated elephants, mainly used in the logging industry throughout Asia, as well as a significant number in captivity around the world.
these are adorable!! i love the contrasting appearance of the elephant...so large and powerful, but i feel so much gentle softness from them and their expressions.

Now it's time for August 2008 Visual Art Features, many new art to discover!
Don't forget that many artists need to be viewed, they deserve it! Fave Fave Fave! My main purpose in doing a monthly feature about (to my point of view) 'the best visual art' is to put in the same level as well wellknown artists and popular creations as unknown artists and under-exposed creations. Artists need to be supported. So don't be shy!
Here's the Menu per Category :
Digital Paintings & Drawings | Mixed Media | PhotoManipulations | 3-Dimensional | Vector & Vexels | Photography | Traditional Paintings & Drawings | Artisan Crafts
With a gallery that takes you on a journey into another world, `spyroteknik has firmly secured a place as one of the top artists within our community. Always willing to participate in events as well as providing critique and guidance to members in such a humble yet inspiring manner is a quality which deserves recognition. So it's with great pleasure that we award this month's Deviousness to Martin Bland. Read More
