Redditor smsilton says it took him 150 shots and over two hours to capture this image of a water drop in front of an MC Escher painting.

This is very much in the spirit of Escher, almost pulling one of his seemingly multi-dimensional 2-D masterpieces into 3-D space. Very cool.

You might want to think twice about posting that picture. The escher estate is very jealous of the man’s work. Everything he did is copyrighted to the max.

Clearly enough new creativity in this work to be separately copyrightable.

Dangerous Minds is a compendium of oddities, pop culture treasures, high weirdness, punk rock and politics drawn from the outer reaches of pop culture. Our editorial policy, such that it is, reflects the interests, whimsies and peculiarities of the individual writers. And sometimes it doesn't. Very often the idea is just "Here's what so and so said, take a look and see what you think." I'll repeat that: We're not necessarily endorsing everything you'll find here, we're merely saying "Here it is." We think human beings are very strange and often totally hilarious. We enjoy weird and inexplicable things very much. We believe things have to change and change swiftly. It's got to be about the common good or it's no good at all. We like to get suggestions of fun/serious things from our good-looking, high IQ readers. We are your favorite distraction.
