very interesting artwork. Still Life photography, mixed with drawings of the places with the odd little additions, very cool.
Shopped.
Sorry I had to say it.
Really this is great stuff, very clever and talented. I enjoyed looking at it very much.
I don’t think anyone is trying to say it’s not shopped
Very Interesting and enjoyable. Like the contrasts(photo/sketch).

Nice idea. Love it. Thanks for sharing.
shopped, so what – it’s cool!
(what isn’t shopped now a days??)
It isn’t shopped, that’s photos of photos. A picture is taken, then it’s used to make the drawing and then a second picture with the drawing and the hand is taken.
