We all know the most important marketing tools is a good logo design. It not only provides an easy to recognize identity for our business but also communicates who we are. So every company consider creating or buying a logo design should know the criteria that make for an effective logo.

The first feature of a good and effective logo is that it can immediately grab viewer’s attention. The logo should have an immediate impact and hold the viewer’s attention. 
For example :
However, if the logo did manage to catch the viewer’s eye, that doesn't necessary mean we are doing good. There might be a hidden ''connotation'' that you cannot see at first sight.

Here the example of Worst Logo Fails of all time which probably didn't look so bad at first sight.

This is an actual logo designed in 1973 for the Catholic Church’s Archdiocesan Youth Commission. It even won an award from the Art Directors Club of Los Angeles.

'A-Style' logo was born well before the line of clothing – designed in 1989 and marketed in Italy since 1999. It was in fact an invention of his creator who began to attack Italian cities with stickers on a yellow background with A-Style logo followed by other cities including Miami , Moscow and London. The newspapers and television began to be interested in the strange appearances of the logo, and soon the company started marketing their products under the brand A-Style. 



Besides 'A', you will see another meaning of this symbol. - IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN

The Office of Government Commerce (OGC) is an independent Office of the Treasury. Sometimes you need to shift your view to realize the error.

Creative To Use Old Things

In our life, there are a lot of reusable things around us, included they are broken or old and somethings even they cannot function anymore like computer, old racket, old luggage, even the broken door and more. Although they look unremarkable and useless, actually they are be reuse and useful. We can use them to make them become another things. This activity is green and save money. Besides that, it's not only can increase our environmental awareness, this is also a good way to let us be creative and increase our creativity sense.

Quirky Toy Pictures

Toys can be great still life subjects, especially if you treat them like little humans. Photos of toys are like diorama photos, only quirkier, with monsters and robots instead of tiny people. 
Rather than waiting for a scene you've imagined to happen, you can use Erin Tyner’s Half Awake series as inspiration and create a diorama of the moment you wish to capture.

HALF AWAKE

The inspiration for Half Awake is rooted in my lifelong love of storytelling as well as my background in human sciences. Working in a miniature scale allows me to depict a range of complex emotions in a playful manner.

Patrick Andrew Adams

Photographer Patrick Andrews Adams expertly shows how small toys can be brilliant characters in a photo narrative. In addition to taking interesting photos, he often writes titles that add depth or character to the situation and toy subjects, much like a photojournalist illuminating a picture with text. Patrick Andrews Adams usually using shallow photography technique to present his works. He captures the nowadays modern times and creative photography.

Awesome Pictures of Lightning Over Water

Lightning strikes are often related with solid objects like trees and tall buildings, but they can also hit bodies of water. Lightning over lakes or oceans is especially beautiful at night because it’s make it brighter, reflecting off the surface of the dark water. 

To shoot a good photo is not as simple as we imagined. There a lot of knowledge of photography that we need to learn. To create a good photograph need technique and experience.

To shoot lightning strikes need the right timing and right place.


Lightning Boats

I love watching lightning and thunderstorm. Lightning is such a cool thing to view from the  distance or in a photo. From the above, you can see the lightning was stopped in the sky, it's like a Zeus and God of Thunder - Thor coming down the earth. It's awesome.
