Visions of fast food
21 Grams
“There’s this weird relationship that we as Americans have with fast food,’ says Feinstein, who titled each image with the given item’s fat content, in grams. ‘I made a project where the food mostly looks disgusting, yet some of it is still strangely enticing – probably because the branding is so embedded in our psyches.”

Miniature
I really enjoy this stuff.
Many years ago I designed a large mural (in Photoshop) that was supposed to look like a bad movie miniature. TiltShiftMaker does it automatically. Or here’s instructions on doing it yourself.
And when I was a kid, my Uncle John had made the coolest train platform for under his Christmas tree. In it he employed his own take on HO scale suburban zoning – with a detailed downtown, country farms, residential section (in the hills, by a lake) and two circular tracks linking everything.
All the images shown are real, just TiltShifted into looking fake. More here.
