Henry Hargreaves is a fine one indeed. It looks like he’s on a roll destroying all sorts of stuff from deep-frying gadgets to cracking colorful substances from eggs. Now, he’s on to Burning Calories, literally, by dousing junk food with lighter fluid and setting them on fire. Frankly, the sight of ice cream going up [...]

We wouldn’t have guessed it by looking at these images. Charles Morgan Smith’s photographic series Emissio appear to be nebulae in intergalactic space, while they are really iridescent oil spills on road surfaces, with the pictures formed using conventions of Hubble images.
