I took this shot in a dark room with a narrow flash hovering over my toy. I had to shoot on manual and use a 30 second shutter speed to avoid using the flash and over exposing my photo. Fortunately, because of the lighting and the drastic effect that the light already creates, no editing had to be done. The flash had no cover and was triggered by my camera.

A new global study* surveyed 4,000+ people across 9 countries, exploring perspectives on breast cancer with an emphasis on understanding awareness around dense breast tissue and risk factors. 74% of people surveyed believe that cancer will be cured in the next 20 years – but we still have a long way to go to achieve this.
*Research Methodology
The research was conducted by Millward Brown during May and June 2015 across 9 countries – Australia, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, UK and USA. A nationally-representative sample of 500 adult respondents (18+) in each country (including a boost of about 200 women per country aged 40-70 years) participated in the research via a 15-minute online survey, after being invited through a password-protected web link. The respondents were drawn from one of the largest global online consumer panels in the world and thoroughly pre-screened to ensure they met the specific quality demands of the project. The composition of the final pool of participants was controlled in each country through thorough checks on demographic and other information in order to reach a unique, genuine and representative audience in each country.
'Million Women Rise' march on International Women's Day - London 09.03.2013
Around three thousand women marched through central London on 9th March 2013 as part of the many International Women's Month events taking place globally, with a special emphasis on drawing public attention to all forms of violence against women by men, the gratuitous objectification of women as mere sex objects, and the sexist glass-ceiling which prevents millions of women in the worldwide workplace from achieving their full potential.
The protesters formed-up outside Selfridges store on Oxford Street - a historically significant building in the 19th century for the more militant London chapters of the Suffragette Movement - the high-spirited, noisy crowd marched down Oxford Street, then down Wardour Street and on to Trafalgar Square where the crowd listened to impassioned speeches from representatives of organisations which help women who are subjected to violence at the hands of men.

Honolulu District’s Special Emphasis Program Committee (SEPC) held its annual Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month event in late May that featured guest speakers Paul Heintz, who made a presentation on the Attack of Pearl Harbor, and James Lee, who provided an eye-witness account on the Pearl Harbor attack and the subsequent Japanese Internment Camps.
Paul Heintz is the Education Director, Pacific Historic Parks, WWII Valor in the Pacific National Monument, Pearl Harbor.
Former Pacific Ocean Division Emergency Operations branch Chief James “Jimmy” Lee was 11 years old and living on the northern shores of Pearl Harbor during the Dec. 7, 1941 attack. Lee is now a volunteer for the National Park Service, Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor.
At the conclusion of the presentations, the SEPC held a SPAM cooking contest where employees could sample and vote on their favorite Spam dish cooked to perfection by fellow employees.
Why Spam? According to Hormel Foods Corporation, which manufactures Spam, Hawaii’s fascination with this canned meat can be traced back to World War II. During the war, Soldiers and Marines were served Spam because it did not require refrigeration and had a long shelf life. Spam quickly made its way from the Army surplus stores to the dinner tables of the local population. Americans of Japanese ancestry incarcerated in internment camps during the war were also served Spam, along with other foods from the Army surplus, such as hot dogs, ketchup and potatoes.
Today in Hawaii citizens consume more Spam products than any other state -- about seven million cans each year. Spam remains part of Hawaii’s local food culture with Spam musubi and Spam fried rice being local favorites.
Took this way back during photography class for emphasis, this is my friend Miranda, she has a flickr but has no contacts and i don't know how to find her, I have tried haha.
