Live long and prosper, Mr Spock
Leonard Nimoy, the iconic and beloved actor who gained a worldwide following for his portrayal of the ever-logical and resolute Mr. Spock on Star Trek, passed away today in his home in Los Angeles. Nimoy was 83. He is survived by his wife, Susan Bay Nimoy, who confirmed his death was caused by end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Nimoy had been fighting this disease after years of smoking, despite having given up the habit three decades ago.

Another milky post from photographer Jaroslav Wieczorkiewicz. Each model is covered in pints of milk and then Wieczorkiewicz takes a number of shots using three different cameras. As the jugs of milk are thrown, the movement of the liquid is captured using fast exposure. The individual frames are then layered in Photoshop to create the finished result. Wieczorkiewicz, who is now based in London and has founded the Aurum Light Studio, said: ‘We work with specific light and pretty normal cameras, there is no magic behind it.’ Speaking about the inspiration for the superhero calendar, Wieczorkiewicz writes on the Aurum Light blog: ‘This time we wanted to make a very relaxed and colourful series… simply, something really cool!’ ‘Milk was coloured with pigments to match the concepts. The biggest challenge was to accomplish a specific shapes for the illustrations,’ he explains.
