Souvenir Perspective Photography

October 22nd 2008 10:01
As reported on the Daily Mail, for 10 years Michael Hughes has been taking his clever holiday snaps of the world's best known landmarks - perfectly blended with cheap souvenirs.
When Michael arrives at a new destination, the first thing he does is head to the nearest souvenir shop and buy the cheapest souvenir. He lines it up with the actual landmark using a technique he has perfected over the years, then snaps away with his digital camera.
Michael has published some of his photos online and since has earned an invitation to appear on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. See more of Michael's famous snaps here.

The first one is fun. Overdone it sorta loses its appeal? Or surprise factor?
