A young man has transformed old car tires into buckets. With the bundles of rubber piling up around him, the potential for new creations is endless. 

This photograph was taken in Bamiyan, Afghanistan.

People of Color Be proud for your own culture,  be proud for the color of your skin, be proud for who you are. Protect & respect your own beliefs, culture, traditions, origins, & morality because those are the ones that gives color and meaning to this world.

“By failing to anticipate the extent of our hedonic adaptation, as consumers we routinely escalate our purchases, hoping that new stuff will make us happier. Indeed, a new car feels wonderful, but sadly, the feeling lasts for only a few months. We get used to driving the car, and the buzz wears off. So we look for something else to make us happy: maybe new sunglasses, a computer, or another new car. This cycle…is what drives us to keep up with the Joneses…We look forward to the things that will make us happy, but we don’t realize how short-lived this happiness will be, and when adaptation hits we look for the next new thing. “This time,” we tell ourselves, ‘this thing will really make me happy for a long time.’”

Photographer Emanuele Satolli has spent the past year chronicling a group of Russians addicted to krokodil, a lethal opiate made with ingredients from hardware stores and pharmacies that causes skin to become scaly, rot and fall off the bone.

See the gripping photos and video inside a krokodil cookhouse on LightBox.
