Long before the introduction of color film, a Russian chemist and photographer named Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky used an innovative technique. He took three individual black and white photos, each through a colored filter (red, green, and blue), to create fully colored, high-quality pictures. The photo of this woman, taken by him, is around 107 years old!
No wait I looked this guy up and this shit’s amazing
It’s so incredibly humanizing to see people from the very distant past in such authentic color
And like. look at these landscape shots!! They’re so vivid!! Even aside from the historical value, these are just legitimately beautiful photographs

“Have I been here before?” is what you might be thinking when looking through Nona Limmen’s photography works. Though they lean more towards
If you've been on goth tumblr for a hot minute, you might not know the name Nona Limmen, but you've seen her beautiful photography.
“Shadow work, dreams, the unspoken, mythology, the occult, that's where my art is born.
Sometimes, it feels like my work has roots in two worlds: the world of the seen and the unseen. My photography isn’t super crisp or glossy, nor is it overly staged or planned. They are worlds created for the dreamers, the late bloomers, the misunderstood, and those who are going through times of hardship. It is for anyone nostalgic for arms that have never held them.
My wish for my art is to heal and encourage others, to make them feel seen, heard, and understood -that it triggers to engage the viewer in a very personal inner dialogue, whether positively or negatively. Something that evokes strong emotions or has a significant impact on them. I hope that my work leaves a mark in one way or another.”

ERTEEEEEE!!!! oh my god Sam Smith is a non-binary person after my own heart! This is how I want to dress everyday, spritizing myself with Yves St. Laurent Y and glamorously yelling at my dogs to stop eating poop in the back yard! yes!
Oh I fucking love this. There's definitely a reference to Naomi Osaka's Japanese heritage, but blended with a Parisian "New Look" silhouette & tailoring.
Naomi's look has a second layer under it, phenomenal!
Gwendolyn Christie KNOWS WHAT THIS THEME IS ABOUT!! YES!!!! I love this! That fit is impeccable!
I've been on holiday in Barcelona, pic spam incoming ;) Here we have the Cemetiri de Poblenou. Cute little cemetery near the beach, lots of walls for coffins and/or urns and a small town of mausoleums.
Also this guy:

Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."
It's crazy that being told how to deal with that is never a part of anyone's menstrual sex education.
This has already been said in the notes, but if PMS causes extreme depression and even suicidal ideation, that is in fact something that most people do not experience and it can be treated
Like for the majority it really is "oh i'm hungrier and moodier than usual"
^this should be a part of sex education so the point still stands
I went to my doctor after I was walking to work one morning and saw a bus coming and actually took a step to throw myself in front of it before I pulled myself together. Later that day I started bleeding and was literally like someone flipped a switch and I didn't feel suicidal anymore. Which made me feel like I was loosing my mind because who goes from 'I want to throw myself in front of a bus' to 'I'm perfectly fine' just like that? I did some research, I went to the doctor and described my feelings, he looked me in the eye and gently asked what I thought it was, I said I'd read about PMDD and I thought it might be that, he said 'I think so too' and wrote a prescription.
If, before you get your period, you feel furiously angry, suicidal, irritated by every tiny thing to the point you want to murder someone, stuck in a black hole you'll never escape from. If you are experiencing extreme emotions for what seems like no good reason, especially if you get your period and those extreme emotions just go away. You're probably not just PMSing , you may have PMS's feral big sister PMDD and it's treatable.
Also this is something that can develop as you get older. So if you used to get normal PMS but what I wrote above sounds more like your norm now then don't just write it off as regular PMS.
ALSO! If you start having those feelings and suspect you’re heading towards perimenopause, talk to your doctor.
Basically, if you have a uterus and you start having extreme mood swings every month, that’s not actually normal, go talk to a medical professional. Don’t grit your teeth and suffer through it.
thinking about her (the ghost barbie from the 2012 haunted beauty series)...
Okay, but this entire collection slaps.
The depths of my coveting for the Haunted Beauty governess Barbie are too great to explain with human language.
I STILL covet that governess Barbie. I also want her outfit in my size.
