    Why a Top Quality Logo isn’t Enough to be Successful

    A logo is a small graphical element that has as main scope the representation of someone/something. This attempt of definition is preferable to the one provided by the Oxford Dictionary or Wikipedia because the main essence is synthesized. It’s simple: you instantly recognize an Apple product after the worldwide notorious logo. In the beginning, nobody figured out the importance of logo and many people consider i...

    Amazing Photography Shots Capturing Star Trails

    Capturing star trails can be a lengthy process but the end result is definitely worth it. How is it done?

    Spectacular Fireworks Photography

    I've always loved fireworks. They paint the dark sky in bright neon colours and can make a huge bang that gets your heart racing. No doubt this year in November I will be standing in the cold on Guy Fawkes Night which is a celebration in my country. I will probably be holding a nice hot chocolate in one hand and a toffee apple in the other going "ooohh" and "ahhh" at the many fireworks being let off into the sky...

    Design After Dark - 90's Rave Flyer Designs

    The 90's isn't the one of those decades that sticks out for memorable design but one thing I do remember from the early 90's is the bright, trippy, euphoric design of UK rave flyers. If you can remember dancing your ass off all night to trippy repetitive beats from DJs like Sasha, Carl Cox and Grooverider whether it be in a club or field then some of these flyers you might recognize from back in the day. Let's...
