Another Side of Dubai 2# Creek Fishnets
My name is Matthew Baker and I’m an artist who grew up in York in England. When I make a joke to my friends from New York about the fact that we are the original they never take particularly kindly to it. Which is fair enough.

FBA Product Photography: How To Make Your Main Listing Image Stand Out
They say that seeing is believing, but what message does your product pictures give? Are they able to tell the story about the features of your product? Or they are telling some other story where the details are misinterpreted, and quality is gimcrack? A picture is definitely worth a thousand words, and when it comes to Amazon product photography services, its worth increases exponentially.

How to Take Amazing Macro Photos of Flowers
Technically, macro photography means taking images of something at a one to one magnification, in other words, life-size or larger.

The Blueprint of my Hometown
Time is running out and I am at last realizing that there has been a black and white filter altering the first version of my town. That being said, the original account is no longer available in its full life edition. What has been recorded in memories, pictures, written proofs, and so on are all valid for the sake of this account.

Jersey Love - Essex County
Jersey has a different rep amongst different crowds. Unless you're in Atlantic City, Jersey is not really a tourist place. You might go to see the Devils at the Prudential Center and then hopping on the Path Train home. So what should one think of when they think of Jersey? Guidos and Italian food? Naughty by Nature and Fetty Wap? So many differences can make Jersey feel disconnected. One of the main stereotypes of Jersey is that it's dirty and industrial. South Jersey is much different from North Jersey. It's nearly like crossing the Mason Dixie line and going into a new state; Essex county, known for its urban arts, has a different vibe than Bergen County, the most expensive county in Jersey. How could a place so small be so divided?.. Well, why not?

Greensboro, NC
The Colorful Parking Garage Greensboro. My home. My town. I was born in Burlington, NC just a little ways away from Greensboro. I’ve had family to stay near Greensboro and it has always been like a second home to me. From mall visits, Celebration Station, and to Wet N Wild! Greensboro made my childhood AMAZING! This was where some of my most significant memories lie.

Living Making History
Growing up as a kid, I always saw bigger cities being displayed in movies and wondered why movie writers didn’t find my city interesting enough for a serious plot to happen. I thought maybe where I was from wasn’t as cool as New York or California since giant fictional creatures like Godzilla didn’t choose Tulsa to wreak havoc on. I know now that this logic was silly, but as a kid representation meant a lot to me. One day, I was sharing my concern of my boring city to my grandmother and when she heard my concerns, she asked me why I felt that way I did and when I told her it because we weren’t a movie famous city. She told me after she finished her client (she was a hair beautician) she would tell me a story I would never forget. One day, we would be movie famous, it would only take the world to do some changing before that happened and to my surprise she was right, I never forgot the story, and I didn’t find my city boring from then on.

An Old, Forgotten Factory Town
"Nothin' beats an Indiana sunset!" That's what every Hoosier said to me. My grandparents, my parents, their friends, my friends' parents, my teachers, my neighbors... everyone. I heard it time and time again, but I never really understood the appeal of it. To me, it was just a sunset, and I had certainly seen prettier ones. I was a senior in high school counting down the days until I could leave it all behind.

When it still lights you up
It is difficult for me to not feel and be lit up when I talk about my stays in Guatemala and Costa Rica. Central America had always been a place I wanted to go and venture to and it wasn’t until my early-mid 20s that I was able to do so. I was and still continue to be so drawn to the culture of the people, colors and textures of the land, the long lineage of unique history and of course, the food. Little did I know how much my heart would feel so connected to one place.
