David Bowie was never afraid to stand out from the crowd with his striking costumes, lots of makeup and brave, innovative songs. He was one of those showmen who still stay “in character” every time he casually leaves home and that really made him special.

These photos of David Bowie and his ex-wife Angie taking a walk with their 3-week-old son Zowie, made by photojournalist Ron Burton on June 29 in 1971, reveals just how important his family was to him. Since we still see him being the same eye-catching rock star as usual, there‘s just something magical there, showing the real glow of David Bowie.

    I am a Brazilian digital artist who loves transforming imagination into hyper-real visuals. I work with artificial intelligence and image editing to create what I always wondered as a child: how would our favorite characters look in real life? Over time, many of my artworks have gone viral and were featured in international publications. I have recreated realistic versions of cartoon characters such as Disney and The Simpsons, imagined how celebrities who died young would look today, and even gave modern faces to historical figures like Mona Lisa or Shakespeare. Beyond entertainment, I created Para Não Esquecer, a social project that revisits memorable criminal cases in Brazil. My goal is to honor victims, keep memory alive and remind society that justice and empathy matter. I also write for Bored Panda, where I create articles featuring artists, photographers, rescue stories and feel-good moments from around the world. My work aims to highlight creativity, kindness and emotional storytelling. In everything I do, my purpose is the same: to touch hearts, evoke emotion and make people feel something real.

    Wow Bowie was so cool. He really dared to be different and express his many sides. I was so upset when he died, we lost a true icon
