‘I am not there,’ Photo Series by Pol Ubeda Hervas
Pol Ubeda Hervas did this great photo series in Barcelona entitled ‘I’m Not There.’
How can we accept that we are changing?
How can we accept we hardly recognize ourselves in certain situations?
I am changing at this very moment of my life.
I do not react in the same ways I used to. I am surprised. Is that me?
These pictures are the way I see myself now.
My shadow is there but I erase myself because I don´t know who I am any longer.
The shoes remain only to make sure there is something more than… a shadow.

‘Girls in the Windows,’ Photograph by Ormond Gigli
‘Girls in the Windows,’ is the signature piece of photographer Ormond Gigli, who shot for such publications as Life,Paris Match, and the Saturday Evening Post. The famous photograph has been sold at Christie’s in New York in the beginning of Oct.
Ormond Gigli says;
“I was inspired to somehow immortalize those buildings. I had the vision of 43 women in formal dress adorning the windows of the skeletal facade,” Gigli writes. “The day before the buildings were razed, the 43 women … climbed the old stairs and took their places in the windows. I was set up on my fire escape across the street, directing the scene, with bullhorn in hand. Of course I was concerned for the models’ safety, as some were daring enough to pose out on the crumbling sills.”

Lego Photographs by Chris McVeigh
We’ve had a lot of great guest photographers on CubeMe recently. But we are particularly impressed by Chris McVeigh’s photographs and his geek universe. His works shows creating clever, quirky and often comical pictures that employ everything from action figures to backyard wildlife.
I am extremely patient and focused when it comes to my work. I have no problem giving a task all of my attention, and sticking with it until I feel it is complete (or at the very least, I’ve reach a certain threshold in the process). I’m not sure my patient with the creative process necessarily translates into overall patience, though… I’m easily annoyed by bad drivers, for example.

Hummingbird Faces off with a Pit Viper
Photographer Bence Máté snapped this amazing shot in Costa Rica. He writes:
I was photographing hummingbirds when I heard the sharp, alarming noise of the birds reacting to the presence of a predator. Sixty feet away from me this green-crowned brilliant was fearlessly attacking a small viper. The long shutter speed and shallow depth of field made it difficult to make an image with both animals sharp. This encounter was one of the most interesting ones I had ever seen, and I quickly set up two flashes to increase the light and shutter speed, using one flash fired from the background and another from the camera.
