One of the most annoying habits of smartphone users is taking pictures of food. It is these "Dinner Snappers", i.e. people who take pictures of meals on the table, that Ikea treated themselves to in their latest ad.

The miraculous power of a smile - when one smile changes everything

You know the idea - a smile doesn't cost you anything, but you can brighten someone's day with it. Jay Weinstein also experienced the incredible power of a smile on his own skin when he once wanted to photograph a man at a train station in India, but when he noticed his frightening look, he aimed the lens elsewhere. Then the man called out to take a photo of him too. ''Smile,'' Weinstein begged him, his serious expression turning into a warm and glowing smile. This moment inspired the photographer to start his series of portraits of strangers, So I Asked Them To Smile.

Legendary historical photos you've definitely never seen before

The old saying goes that a picture is worth a thousand words. The latter is especially true if you walk through your memories with their help.

But they all have a common history. These are legendary historical photos that you most likely have never seen before.

Fashionable dog haircuts - dogs before and after a visit to the dog groomer

A dress makes a man, a haircut makes a dog! Take a look at the dogs who visited the dog groomer and came back from the salon with a more fashionable hairstyle than you've ever had.
