Beautiful Bubble Photography.

Richard Heeks has immense interest in photographing soap bubbles. What we have here are the photos taken at the moment the bubble disappears; these beautiful moments are amazingly photographed in their perfect glory. He has a Flickr photo set of these bubbles, some of which seem so beautiful that one needs to think twice whether they are natural. '9' of his bubble photos have been featured on Explore too.

Best of Vinyl Records.

Even today vinyl records have a special place for those who like music. But with time they can get scratches and can also brake, then there isn't much one can do about it unless you are creative. Reshaping of vinyl is possibly one of the most amusing things, and creative designers have come up with lots of inventive ways to use these old vinyl records.

Record Purse:

"Each side of the purse is Side One of a different album. I printed out the labels on colored heavy weight printer paper, and used double-sided paper adhesive to attach them over the existing labels on the records."
