Empire State Building Reflected in a Puddle Photo
Sep 21st, 2016 by Aldouspi

The Art Deco style empire State Building is one of the most iconic of buildings and is certainly synonymous with New York City. The skyscraper is 102-stories tall or 1,454 feet.

Here we have a photo by Ben Hipp that captures the marvelous building as it is reflected in a puddle of street water after a rain. Images captured in reflections whether from a water in lakes or ponds or or puddles or in mirrors or windows have long fascinated photographers and artists… and those who appreciate their work (like me).

After a brief rainstorm in New York City, illustrator Ben Hipp took this creative reflection photo of the Empire State Building.

On reddit, Hipp says he took the photo with his iPhone 5 and rotated the photo 180 degrees so the building’s reflection wouldn’t appear upside down.

Signs of Overpopulation: Hong Kong Density
Sep 6th, 2016 by Aldouspi

Do you think that overpopulation is a problem or will we be able to build homes for everyone on the planet that fulfills not only their basic needs, but their dreams?

In this great capture by Steven Wei, we get a feel for the density of Hong Kong. According to this list of the densest places on Earth, Hong Kong ranks #4 with a population density of 6,624 people per square kilometer or 17,156 people per square mile.

For an area that’s barely over 1,100 square kilometers in size and a population of over 7.3 million, that’s staggering. Hong Kong also features a high density of tall buildings and boasts the second largest number of high rises (buildings 12 stories or higher) in the world. Via Steven Wei on UnsplashTwistedSifter
