For this week we have some beautiful historic photographs, a tiger realizing that YOLO, men wearing their girlfriends’ clothes, and smart phone images of life after a tornado.

  • This excellent gallery of images by former Exposed winner Michael Stargill of high school athletes on ESPN.com makes us very proud.
  • Sending images across the ocean in 1926 was a lot more complicated than it is now.

  • Photographer Rene Burri discusses some of his most famous work and how he thinks Photoshop is getting in the way of the truth.
  • This week marked the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg and the Denver Post put together a gallery of historic images. Be warned that many are quite graphic.
  • Speaking of war photography, the Corcoran has two different photography exhibits happening now. They also offer free Saturdays during the summer so go get your art on.
  • The British Press Photographers’ Association announced the winners of The Press Photographer’s Year.  Prepare to spend some time poring over some beautiful images.
  • Oh hey, remember that time Fidel Castro was hanging out in Meridian Hill Park?
  • Photographer Jon Uriarte’s portraits of men wearing their girlfriends’ clothes.
  • Images of a car that was totaled at the intersection of 14th & T, in 1916.
  • National Geographic tweets a picture of a tiger selfie, proving that cats really do run the internet.

Every Friday we will be sharing interesting photography links from the far corners of the web and the comfort of our own backyard. Today we have portraits from D.C., interesting answers from a photography master, and the treasures from the past resurfaced. Enjoy!

  • Who doesn’t want to drink a photo of themselves?
  • Commercial photographer James Bareham describes how his smartphone changed the way he shoots.
  • Comparison of Chicago newspapers & Stanley Cup victory photos after the Sun-Times cut their photo staff.
  • You will want to read the answers William Eggleston gave to questions from other photographers and critics.
  • Have you ever wanted a 3D camera for your iPhone? There is a Kickstarter for that.
  • Excellent multiple exposure portraits from Lumen8Anacostia by Joshua Yospyn.
  • The Urban Photography Series from the Historical Society of Washington D.C. looks like a wonderful adventure for photography lovers and history lovers. Spots for this weekend are still available.
