Photography :: Tim MacPherson


Though all of his photography is good, I particularly enjoy the few images of children at play at home found in the portfolio section of Tim MacPherson's site. LINK

Sorry I'm Late :: Tomas Mankovsky


A very nice stop-animation style movie, this time taking advantage of depth of field as well. Some very clever ideas in there! LINK

Recreated Postcards :: Markus Georg


Though I do wish he had done a side-by side comparison of the real thing along with his recreations, he still managed some creative compositions of famous sites. Stonehenge, Matterhorn, the Eiffel Tower and more can be found at his site. LINK

This mother has found a simple yet clever way to enjoy her baby's nap time. LINK

Cardboard Office :: Nothing


The creative agency, Nothing, in Amsterdam has created a fabulous office space from cardboard! Designed by Alrik Koudenburg and Joost van Bleiswijk, what a way to break up an open, noisy work space (though I do wonder how it is holding up over time). Check out the photos at their site. Click "About Nothing", then "The idea behind Nothing". LINK

Hyperbole Studios :: Kiel Johnson


This guy does some fantastic work, both sculptural and illustrative, and at times, combines the two. I love his printing press and cameras! See more including photos in his studio at his site. LINK

These cardboard delicacies look almost good enough to eat. Check out all of the pastries, sushi and even a hamburger at her site. LINK
