The recorded music industry has enjoyed its first significant growth since the dawn of the Internet age, as streaming led digital to overtake physical sales, a global trade body said Tuesday. Recorded music revenue expanded by 3.2 percent in 2015 worldwide to $15 billion, fueled by an extraordinary growth in subscriptions to streaming services, according to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry. The growth is the first uptick in the music industry at a more than marginal level since 1998, when sales grew 4.8 percent year-on-year.

LONDON (AP) — Adele had the world's best-selling album last year, a global smash that helped music revenues record their first significant growth since the dawn of the digital age two decades ago.

Spring Time by Lauri Lohi

As much as i love nature and landscape photography, i’ve always loved to shoot flowers and macros. Now it is finally spring in Finland and the nature is slowly waking up, so very soon it is time for flowers. This image of hepaticas is taken last spring.

Cream Beam by Stian N

Seen here is a fjord landscape typical for Norway’s west. For a couple of weeks per year, the sun sets so that it shines a fast changing beam of light through this entire fjord. This was one of those nights. Thanks for looking, any feedback welcome.

Precession by Timothy Poulton

Have you ever dropped a stone in the water and noticed the circular waves that are created? This is a natural phenomenon called “Precession.” What I have witnessed all around the world is a complete lack of regard for other people by the hiking community. In Patagonia when we pass other hikers on the trail we shout “Hola” and other friendly greetings but thats about as far as it goes. At sunrise photographers and hikers make the pilgrimage up to the Towers of Torres del Paine to bring in the day and what should be a beautiful moment is ruined by the imbeciles that scramble up the steep and dangerous wall sending car size boulders down onto the people around the lake. Inspired by so called professional photographers and the comp stompers that follow them. Each of us exists within this tapestry. Thoughts and actions are like stones dropped in a pond and they create ripples that travel outward. Everything we do and think affects the people in our lives and their reactions in turn affect others. The choices you make have far-reaching consequences. Each of us carries within us the capacity to change the world in small ways for better or worse. To anyone out on the trails, use a little common sense and obey the signs. Whats the price of that epic landscape or selfie. Image from Lake Pehoe captured without risking others.
