Wow! Snowflakes Under A Microscope
I've always been inspired by snowflakes. To me, they are like little specks of magic when they fall from the sky. Since it doesn't snow much in Atlanta, I don't get to see snowflakes very often.

A Working Camera Made With Lego Bricks
I follow a lot of photographers on Twitter, and I learn from them everyday.

Artistic Inspiration: Thousands of Memories Mashed Into One
Wow, this is nuts! It's one of those projects that would take me a decade to finish, no, on second thought, a lifetime. Artist Corinne Vionnet created these pictures of famous monuments below. Well, she sort of created them. What she actually did is mind bending.

Photography: A Woman Breaks Out Of Her Shell, Literally
There comes a time in every girl's life when she transitions into being a woman. With that new role comes a whole new set of responsibilities, expectations, and many times, a whole new life.

What is it that makes water so interesting to photograph? I've been inspired by some of the photographers we've featured on Bit Rebels, and I've tried to photograph water droplets myself.

Dress Up Your iPhone 4 Leica Style!
The iPhone is a great gadget! When my iPhone needed to be reformatted, I did not have it for about two months so I got a Blackberry Bold. I love both phones. They each have their own particular attributes in terms of functions that anyone would love, so I guess it all still comes down to the indi ...
