My dad sent me the following email last night regarding the lunar eclipse in India

From the Arts & Culture section of today’s Philadelphia Weekly:
Michael Konrad’s “Camo Cones (Hiding in Plain Site)” is almost invisible. Wrapped in images of their immediate surroundings, the traffic cones—usually meant to stand out—dissolve into the streetscape. “Although it’s technically illegal, saving parking spaces is not something that people make any...

blueheartdrops asked: i'm 19 i don't know anything really about editing, writing, or directing but, telling a story to people and directoring it has become a passion for me.

I mean what does it take to be a great...
