There are at least 12 different types of waterfall, including cascade, horsetail, punchbowl and frozen. Niagara Falls and Victoria Falls are both segmented block waterfalls, and Angel Falls is a cascade waterfall.
There are thousands of waterfalls around the world, and if you are standing beside them, each one is beautiful in its own right, and every waterfall, from the correct position, with the right weather circumstances and a camera in the right hands, can be the subject of a beautiful photograph.
Here are 20 beautiful photographs of waterfalls - Niagara Falls and Victoria Falls are both represented here, but the others, although lesser-known are just as photogenic.
Reflections in photography can either create a stunning piece of artistic work, or completely ruin the image. Good reflection photography depends on many factors such as light source, what is being reflected and the reflective substrate – ie: mirror, water, glass, etc., and of course, the creativity of the photographer.
Here is a collection of 20 outstanding examples of creatively excellent reflections in photographs.
A caricature is a grossly exaggerate likeness of a person – achieved by emphasizing the larger facial features, ie nose, eyes, lips, chin, and minimizing the smaller features of a person’s face.
Caricatures can be either insulting or complimentary – although the artist’s intention is not always the way the subject receives the message!
With the technological advances in drawing software, and the influx of outstanding digital artists, you do not have to move away from your computer to view great caricature illustrations.
This feature brings you 20 outstanding, humourous caricature illustrations of celebrities.

London is the Capital city of England, and also one of the oldest cities - the Romans called it Londinium. Although London is the largest metropolitan area in the UK and the largest urban zone in the European Union, the City itself is only one square mile in area. The rest is made up by the surrounding areas - the London region and the Greater London Administrative area.
London is a leading global city, with strengths in the arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fashion, finance, and many more. It is the world's largest financial centre alongside New York, and is home to more than 100 of Europe's 500 largest companies. It has the most international visitors of any city in the world.
London has a great diversity of architectural styles, and many easily recognisable landmarks.
This showcase features just eight of London's great landmarks.
In the natural order of things, old-age should come to us all. Elderly people are just us in a few years' time - yes, a few years... it is amazing how time flies as you age!
I like to think that every wrinkle on an old person's face was created by a laugh - so the more wrinkles, the more the person has laughed in their lifetime - may be a fantasy, but a nice way to look at it!
