Peculiar Pics | Hossein Zare Plays With The Camera To Create Amazing Images

Peculiar Pics | Hossein Zare Plays With The Camera To Create Amazing Images

Photoshop is a pretty cool app when it is not being used to alter model breasts and thighs. Photographer Hossein Zare is a pro and making things look good, especially behind the lens. He snapped some photos and used photoshop to give them a different perspective.

Zare’s last collection included black & white images. The focus of the pictures was a man searching for something. He was strategically placed in various sceneries with his footprints trailing or legs in the walking position. This time, Zare positions the dude in some pretty strange places. He’s been spotted tightrope walking between two vertical skylines, upside down on a swing and chasing his hat above an upside down skyline. There are some very interesting natural scenery pieces as well. Check out Zare’s creative flicks in the gallery after the jump.

Air Jordan V Retro “Grape” – Release Reminder

Grapes

Tomorrow marks the return of a Jordan Brand classic in the Air Jordan V “Grape.” Arguably the most popular colorway in the V, this gem bears coloring perfect for the breezy Spring season. Originally released back in 1993, the silhouette itself is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year with a “Black Grape” scheme set to drop in the Fall. But today (and tomorrow) is about the OG Grapes. Timeless in style, essential to your collection, and a monument in Air Jordan history.

Making their first appearance since 2006, the Air Jordan V “Grape” looks to a predominately white base to start with grape accenting along the tongue and midsole. Ice Blue aids the Jumpman branding and mid while a black mudguard sees placement along the rear. A partially translucent outer finishes the look. Priced at $160 USD, look for the “Grapes” in stores tomorrow at Jordan Brand retailers. Will you be copping a pair?

Reebok Ends Partnership with Rick Ross | News

Rozay

It was all good just a week ago – a statement that would, up until yesterday, describe the great relationship between Reebok and Maybach Music Group CEO Rick Ross. The rapper was a major brand ambassador for Reebok over the past two years during their well documented resurgence in the footwear market. However, their partnership took a major blow today as news broke that Reebok had dropped the rapper from their deal. Of course, this news comes on the heels of controversy surrounding the Miami rapper and a few unforgiving lyrics.

After Ross released the song “U.O.E.N.O.,” there was an immediate uproar about the songs choice lyrics. “Put Molly all in the champagne / She ain’t even know it / I took her home and I enjoy that / She ain’t even know it.” Those words that now rest in infamy, were a little too much for Reebok to handle. They said in a statement to TMZ, “We hold our partners to a high standard. We expect them to live up to the values of our brand.  Unfortunately, Rick Ross has failed to do so. While we do not believe that Rick Ross condones sexual assault, we are very disappointed he has yet to display an understanding of the seriousness of this issue or an appropriate level of remorse.” Tough break for Rozay.
