Happy Valentine’s Day! This week stock photos of women are finally getting some love, a wildlife photographer found the love of a family of foxes in her yard, a photographer looks back on a lifetime of loving his wife, and baby tigers find love in some unusual places.

  • Don’t forget our snow photo challenge! Tag your best ones from yesterday or any storm in the last year with “snowexposed” and get them into our Flickr pool by Monday for a chance to win a pair of tickets to the Exposed DC Photography Show in March.
  • Stock photos of women are finally getting updated. LeanIn.org and Getty have partnered to show the diverse reality of women’s lives in photographs. “The new library of photos shows professional women as surgeons, painters, bakers, soldiers and hunters. There are girls riding skateboards, women lifting weights and fathers changing babies’ diapers.”
  • In related news, active female athletes have only appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated five times in the last five years.
  • The Magazine has a great story on photographer Michael Shindler who is creating tintype portraits in his San Francisco studio.
  • Wildlife photographer Melissa Groo found work in her own backyard when she discovered a family of foxes made a den in her shed.
  • Vanity Fair took a look back at Olympic photos from the early days of the Games.
  • The Baltimore Museum of Art received a major donation of contemporary art photography.
  • Hassan Hajjaj has captured interesting photographs of women in Moroccan motorbike gangs.
  • This is what 100,000 gallons of coal look like in a West Virginia river.
  • Not all babies are human or animal. Davin Haukebo-Bol has created a funny newborn session with his new computer baby.
  • Gizmodo has images of the world’s largest solar plant, which starting creating energy in California this week.
  • Photographer Art Shay created a stunning gallery of images from his 67 year marriage to his wife Florence. You might want to grab the tissues.
  • And finally, Discovery News has a cute Valentine’s Day roundup of unusual animal pairs, including an orphaned Sumatran tiger cub and an orangutan, and several more tiger pairings.
