Hi Folks:

Came across this image:

http://www.us.kohler.com/craftsmanship/mag...chinaRaft-large (http://www.us.kohler.com/craftsmanship/mag_ad_detail.jsp?magAd=chinaRaft-large)

in a magazine the other day, and it reminded me of Michael's workshop in China in 2005 and the fisherman they worked with in Guilin.  That article's here:

I quite like that Kohler image... It actually looks 'real' unlike the others there.

There are some very interesting images there though. Overall, I prefer real (only) photography, but sometimes the same effect isn't achievable.

That's a wonderful image Mike, and will definantly peruse it more, as with planetside. Cheers Sergio.
