as real as it gets

Cs4


This intriguing poster has been developed for software-asli.com as a Photoshop CS4 ad in Indonesia. It cleverly recreates the Photoshop interface using real objects and was made by some clever people in Indonesia. It's the kind of work you see and think 'I wish I'd have done that!'

You can see the making of pictures on Flickr here.

wildlife photographer of the year

Wildlife


Friday saw the opening of the 2008 Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition at London's Natural History Museum. The finalists and winners images on display are truly stunning, and an inspiration to get taking more photos. A few of my faves are above.
