In 1979, an ophthalmologist told photographer Steven Erra that he would lose his eyesight in twenty years. But his diminishing vision didn't make him lose his soul, and the diagnosis only motivated him further to create fascinating works of art. Steven is now part of a group of photographers in New York called the Seeing With Photography Collective, who shoot stunning images using the long exposure technique known as "light painting." Check out the inspiring two-minute feature by Great Big Story below:
The interior of this newly-opened tea house in Tokyo's Shin Okubo district is designed to look like a two-dimensional cartoon. From doors and walls, to tables and chairs, each item inside the 2D Cafe is painted in plain white with soft, black edges. The restaurant offers milk tea, tapioca, coffee, fruit juices, and shaved ice desserts. The only thing that I don't like about the cafe is the space. The tables are so close together that you can hear the most private details of strangers' lives whether you care to or not.
