Help Beat Cancer with Race For Life

We’re thrilled to announce our cooperation with Race for Life today. The largest women-only fundraising event in the UK, Race for Life gathers women of all ages to come together to walk, jog or run to help beat cancer.

We’ve built a Facebook app for Race for Life that embeds the slideshow of the album Race for Life directly on Facebook. That way participants can share their photos during the races on EyeEm while the whole event is live-streamed via Race for Life’s Facebook page.

A Day in the Life of Rich Thane

“A Day in the Life of…” is a feature about nice and interesting people. Through the means of (mobile) photography they are sharing one day in their lifes with us.

We finally tracked down our favorite (honorary) Scandinavian Rich Thane to give us a peek into his life. He took these photos on Thursday November 24th in London. Here’s what he says:

Who is Rich?

Hi - my name is Rich and I’m the editor of the UK based music site The Line Of Best Fit and the recently launched sister site Ja Ja Ja: A Nordic Affair. Seeing as that I spend the majority of any given day locked to my phone (usually on twitter - it’s an addiction that I’m thinking of seeking help for), it seemed like a pretty nice idea to document ‘a day in the life’ although, it became apparent pretty quickly that any given day is pretty dull scenery wise… Train stations….. Offices…… You get the idea.

Luckily, on the chosen day - Thursday 24th November - I was celebrating two years since we launched the Ja Ja Ja Club Night in London. It’s a night celebrating the very best in new Nordic music. We book three bands, most of which have never set foot on UK soil before, and month after month they wow a few hundred Londoners. It’s a busy night for me so remembering to take photos wasn’t always at the forefront of my mind but hey, I did my best. So, without further adue, welcome to my day. Hope you get something out of it… Even if it’s simply the incredibly strong desire to go and make a bacon sandwich. THE FINAL FANTASY by KORALLREVEN

Hi, EyeEm Kevin Thornhill

Welcome to the latest edition of Hi, EyeEm featuring Kevin Thornhill. He’s born and raised in London and enjoys shooting life on the streets. Kevin is a firm believer that it’s more about the moment than the quality of the image and that it’s better to catch something rather than nothing at all. We had a little chat with him to learn more about his thoughts on mobile photography.
