These pictures have been created using various light sources shone directly into a camera lens. The pictures have been created using things like flash lights, bike lights and LED and are shot with long exposure cameras using a slow shutter  speed in the dark. They are quite amazing, especially as they are created from a single photo that has not undergone any computer enhancement. The camera used is a 21.1 megapixel Canon EOS 5D Mark II .

article-1207758-061B6A87000005DC-548_634x491 These interesting looking sandwiches were created by Mark Northeast in an attempt to get his son Oscar to eat his vegetables. Fed up of his son not eating his meals Mark started to make them a little more interesting. His creation include a caterpillar and a crocodile as well as Spongebob Squarepants and a piano. They are certainly more exciting than most sandwiches I have seen.

This is unusual, its 3D sculptures carved out of old phone books. They are made by Alex Queral an artist from Philadelphia. He produces two new pieces a month and has been working in this way for 14  years. He starts off by sketching a picture and then places it over the phonebook to use as template before using a scalpel to cut away at the pages to create the finished sculpture. You can see a work in progress above and a finished image of Obama to the right.
