Healthy Fish & Chips
Fish and chips make you fat. Advertising food that makes you fat usually focuses on anything else but the calories, which is good because I don't want to be fat, but I do want to eat loads of fish and chips. And burgers. And cheese.
And cake.
So here is some excellent advertising about fish and chips that shows you can have a healthy take on this classic dish.

Art with light
We love light-painting and this set of work is really cool. France-based photographer Fabrice Wittner has created an illuminating project (see what I did there) titled “Enlightened Souls” that consists of ghostly portraits created by light-painting with stencils (which are themselves created from actual portraits). Wittner first started the project in May 2011 after the earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand.
He says "I first thought of it as an artistic and morale contribution to the 6.3 quake’s aftermath. I used stencils to paint enlightened characters to remember human losses and to show the spirit of a wounded city. It turned out to be an interesting way to share ideas and feelings about society and life. After all, this is what street art is made for."
After completing the Christchurch series he started creating portraits of Vietnam's village children in Hanoi.
