15 Most Creative Green Ads

Check out this brilliant World Wildlife Fund ad campaign in the form of bathroom towel dispenser! Demonstrating that Saatchi and Saatchi is the undisputed king of transforming advertising into an art form, this genius PSA integrates a crucial environmental message into the built environment. Shown above is the latest example of clever marketing concept ingeniously integrated into the most banal space: a public restroom. These paper towel dispensers have a cut out the shape of South America through which a stack of green paper towels illustrates the green rain forest canopy of the continent.

Sunset Photography: 35 most memorable sunset pictures

Many people are fascinated with the view of sunset. That is why sunset has been one of the most popular photography scenes that we come across. For photographers, every sunset provides an opportunity to capture a unique scene, with different set of clouds or things in foreground. Photographing a sunset view also gives you infinite variations of colors in one evening itself. However, sunset photography can be trickier than what you initially thought. So here are some quick tips on how to successfully capture a beautiful sunset scenery without even with your simple point-and-shoot camera.

  1. First of all, you need to have a camera (preferably a DSLR so you can have full control of your aperture and shutter speeds) and a tripod or a steady place to rest your camera.
  2. Think about your composition. You should have a clear idea on how you want to capture your sunset scene. Take into consideration the clouds, the shades and colors as well as the objects in the foreground.
  3. Go down on the exposure if you are shooting the sun with the whole sky. Underexposing your scenery gives you a perfect back lit picture and results in more saturated colors.
  4. When shooting sunsets, you need lots of patience as it usually takes several minutes in order for you to get the perfect picture you are looking for. Take lots of shots as the scenery changes from one minute to another, giving you lots variations of shades and colors of the sky.
