Lenticular Look At Steve Job’s Life
Months may have already passed since Steve Jobs passed away, but as long as Apple survives thanks to the man’s brilliant innovations, his memory lives on. Just in case there were any doubts about Mr. Jobs’ legacy though, fans have been working on their own ways to immortalize the late CEO. From action figures to a Facebook-organized holiday, people across the globe have been creating a variety of tributes.
While many of these are interesting, few are suitable for MoIllusions, but this great graffiti project spotted on Bond Street in New York City by Twitpic user Kennycity certainly is.
While any graffiti tribute would take some time and forethought (assuming the artist didn’t want to be arrested in the process), this lenticular portrait took even more time to put together as the creator had to figure out the angle his work would be viewed at and to ensure it went up straight in order for the illusion to work. In case you were curious what it looks like from the wrong angle, her is a side view:

40 Beautiful Still life Photography Examples
The concept of photography is very simple. Try and turn the moments of life into memories. Still Life Photography tries to do the very same thing but with a little tweak in it. In Still life you create the moment yourself. The photographer tries to turn ordinary objects into extraordinary photographs. It shows that not everything in life is still. Photographers take their own time, and the subject remains stationary. Still Life Photography could be carried after you select an object or a group of objects. Once the object is selected you could set your lighting, composition and contrast to give to the photo. Most of the times photographers make Still life photographs and do not take them. I found a fantastic article on Still life photography tips at Ephotozine. You may like to check it over. In the past we have featured various photography showcases like Conceptual Photography, Dew and Water Drops Photography and Bokeh Photography. In this post we are publishing 40 Beautiful Still life Photography Examples for your Inspiration. I hope this post might help you to get an idea about Still Life Photography and inspire you to try the same. In the meanwhile you may want to read some more of our Photography and Inspirational articles

12-Year-Old Guy Builds Real-Life Angry Birds Game Using Pumpkins
 Sam Beards, a 12-year-old Angry Birds fan from England, has taken his obsession with the popular video game to a whole new level, by creating a real-life version using pumpkins and a giant cannon. Just like millions of people around the world, Sam spent hours every day playing Angry Birds on the tiny screen of his iPod, but when he got the idea of making a real-life adaptation of his favorite game using a pumpkin cannon his father built last Halloween, he jumped at the opportunity. In Angry Birds, players have to shoot various types of birds at their mortal enemy, the pigs, using a slingshot, but in Sam Beads version, people use the giant cannon to shoot pumpkins painted as the popular birds at other pumpkins painted as pigs. Sam explained told his father, Dorian Beards, about Angry Birds and his idea of recreating it on their farm, and although he had never heard about it, and always wondered what his son was doing on his iPod every day, the farmer from Barford, Warwickshire, thought it would make a fine attraction for tourists. The destructible environment that protects the egg-thieving pigs in Rovio's hit game was constructed in just one hour, using straw bales, wooden planks and a few old barrels, and the $800 pumpkin cannon was ready to cause some damage. Sam's siblings, sister Jessica, 16, brothers Ben, 14, and Davy, four, with their father Dorian are in charge of painting the pumpkins as Angry Birds characters, and Sam fires the compressed air cannon that can shoot a pumpkin up to 500 meters. 'They had a great time firing the pumpkins at pretend targets. I think we might make this a regular event and get the customers to join in,' Sam's mother, Fiona, says. With the ever-growing popularity of Angry Birds and the media coverage this story is getting right now, I'm pretty sure the Beards are going to be overrun by tourists this Halloween. Now, if you'll excuse me, it's time for my daily Angry Birds gaming session. Story by Caters News via Asylum Friday, October 28, 2011It's a Dog's Life (Funny Pics)
