I bet most of you never heard of the term “Scanography” before, but its ok, I just learned about it a week ago.

NYC’s Department of Records announced today the debut of an online photo database, containing 870,000 vintage images of New York City from the 19th and 20th centuries – free for all of us to look and enjoy (and buy prints!). It took 4 years for them to make it happen – from choosing the images, develop, scan, upload and add description and keywords. Amazing work.

Ronen Goldman (31) is a “surreal and conceptual” photographer from Israel. 5 years ago he started a project he calls “The Surrealistic Pillow Project” where he recreates things he sees in his dreams while sleeping, turning them into magical images.

From my experience as a photographer, dancers are the best models out there by far.

So to prove my point, this week I’m bringing you some of the best dancing photos found on Flickr – Check them out and tell us which are your favorites!
