Pictures By Mexican Photographer

Do you remember your first photo taken with a camera, when you only had one chance to make it right and could never predict the printed result which often ended up with red eyes, awkward face or messy hair? Or your first selfie with a phone of such awful quality you could barely spot the features? Now look at your Instagram feed - we‘ve come so far! And I am not just talking about technology, we have so much inspiration around us – it‘s overwhelming. Photography is no longer for preserving memories as it used to be, it‘s about making the memories while taking the pictures, sharing, popularity, art... you name it.

Social media is packed with amazing cinematic photos, and although sometimes there is a team of professional photographers, make-up artists and stylists behind those images, there is another side to the story. Many photographers invite us to the behind the scenes of their perfect shots proving that it’s achievable to most of us with very minimal resources and even in the most unexpected locations as we’ve previously shared on Bored Panda 

In the constant battle for attention and hunting for ‘likes’ on social media, is it smart to reveal what makes your photos so flawless, you ask? Well, it definitely works for a Mexican photographer Omah, who has gained over 100k followers eager to find out how to step up their Instagram game. Even though he is a professional photographer, the truth he reveals with his photos is utterly motivating – it’s possible to capture a stunning Instagram-worthy shot with lots of creativity and a little bit of Photoshop magic. No one has to know that your eye-catching picture was taken in the public bathroom, a parking lot outside your office or, a true classic, in front of a screen – and this is what actually makes it impressive.
You can’t fully trust what you see on the Internet, take a look at this enlightening series of behind-the-scenes by Omah to find out why and learn some tips and tricks about how to easily shine on your social media.

Japanese Photographer Documents The Many Faces of Tokyo’s Stray Cats (10+ Pics)

With his pictures, Japanese photographer Masayuki Oki captures the individual personalities of the many otherwise anonymous stray cats that live in Tokyo's shitamachi area. His collection might be called busayan, which literally means "ugly cat", but the photographer has nothing but affection for his moggie muses.

“I want to travel the country photographing all of Japan’s lovely stray cats,” says the photographer. For now however he limits his setting to the shitamachi area of the capital, where he documents the streetwise cats as they fight, nap, and goof around for the camera. The photographer never reveals the exact location of his feline photoshoot, but if you want to keep up to date with his latest photographic exploits then you can add your name to the 48,000+ people who follow him on Instagram.

This Polish Photographer Takes The Most Beautiful Dog Photos Ever (13 Pics)

You may remember a post we did about Alicja Zmyslowska, a Polish photographer who takes beautiful and dreamlike portraits of dogs. Well, we loved her work so much that we thought we’d share some more of her pictures with you. After all, you can’t get too much of a good thing, and we’re sure you’ll agree that these pictures aren’t just good – they’re stunning.

“Since I was a child I loved animals,” Zmyslowska . “When I was 4, I got two beautiful cats but my biggest dream was still to have a dog. In 2006 this dream came true. My lovely golden retriever Kiara finally arrived to my home and changed my life! From the beginning I was making pictures of her with some compact camera or borrowed DSLR from my older brother. A year later I got my first DSLR camera. And everything started!”

See her amazing work for yourself in the series of pictures below.
