German photographer Achim Lippoth must have some unresolved childhood issues he needs to resolve, and that’s a good thing. “Rage Attack” is his kick-ass photo series of kids acting really bad. I know nothing about this degenerate behavior because I was a perfect child growing up.

Depressingly, I can’t remember the last time I saw a firefly – we don’t get many cruising down Broadway in the middle of the night. Check out these amazing photos of fireflies taken with a slow shutter speed:
(Fact of the Day: ‘Fireflies are winged beetles and give off a green luminous glow from chemicals in their lower abdomen in a process called bio-luminescence. As babies – the larval stage of the insects’ lives – they use their glow to warn off predators but as adults they use the same phenomenon to attract mates.’)

Luckily photographer Henry Jun Wah Lee drank enough coffee to stay awake – he shot this stunning time-lapse video of the event from Joshua Tree national park in California:

Artist Sergey Larenkov seamlessly blends vintage WWII-era photos from Berlin, Vienna, Prague, and Moscow, together with present-day images from the same locations to create compelling and often beautiful juxtapositions. A few of my favorites:
