The Wheels Go Around
I love when I spot something like this happening on the street. It happened near the London Eye where there’s a novelty photo booth shaped like a bus. Two kids were at the back, with one pointing at the wheels, and then they go and spin the wheels!
Pink on Pink in London
Sometimes the photography gods just hand you a gift, and this was one of those moments. I was walking through central London when I spotted this woman standing at the kerb in a pink striped shirt — and directly behind her, as if placed there by a set designer with a very specific sense of…
The Burger King Plane Comes In to Land

Someone stole their chariots.
Beware the giant duck!

The non-average photographer
Nikonkit have dedicated a page to the wackiest pictures of photographers ever. They’re all funny or strange and entertainig too although a few are NSFW so proceed with caution! (via)
