Cats aren’t well-known for their fondness for international travel, but these kitties from Japan have become global jet-setters. Daisuke Nagasawa has spent the past few years taking his two faithful cats, Daikichi and Fuku-Chan, around the world with him.

The CEO of a tech company, Daisuke has also taken the cats to all 47 prefectures across his native Japan, photographing his two furry friends in some of the country’s most iconic landmarks.

It is difficult to imagine what the first loggers felt when they first saw the coastal redwoods. It takes a lot of moxie and muscle to down a three hundred foot high tree.

Lumberjacks, many of whom came from farms before heading to the woods to make money logging, took pride in the trees they cut and posed for pictures on massive stumps using the growing technology of photography. While the work was dangerous, the woodworkers also developed sports such as logrolling that are still practiced by outdoorsmen in competitions today.

Though the job of lumberjacks has since largely been mechanized, below are photos of lumberjacks from the turn of the last century as they looked to make their mark on America using only hand tools.

Masculinity is a concept as outdated as can be, and yet in 2018 it’s as prevalent as ever. Photographer Jack Daly has been surrounded and pressured by stereotypes forever, and finally he’s calling it out.

In a personal project entitled The Real Man Catalogue, Daly has pointed the finger at society and questioned what the phrase Real Man does to minorities, to young boys, to all men. A tongue-in-cheek collection of work, he was inspired by early 80s print ads, which he’d “been gorging over…they seemed like the perfect way to highlight how outdated these masculine stereotypes are”, he explained, “how ridiculous I think they are”. Tackling masculine conventions one satire at a time, the series challenges what we think it means to be male in today’s world.

Nastia Cloutier-Ignatiev is a young photographer based in Montreal. Her images mostly focus on girls.

“I like to say that my photography is about what is attractive in a girl, about her feelings and bad habits. In one word: It’s about badass girls.”

Her images confront the viewer in a very personal way, Nastia’s lens gets closer than it needs to be, and result is the kind of striking iconography that blends fashion, art and beauty photography all at once “I like to empower women because I find that often in fashion we look too often vulnerable, and I hate that.”
