Eclectic Color Roundup

Here’s a roundup of the most colorful art, products, websites and such that I’ve come across in the last week.

Art

Running from Camera

Running from Camera

The rules are simple: I put the self-timer on 2 seconds, push the button and try to get as far from the camera as I can.

A nice photo project from Muggezifter. When I first came across this blog I thought it was was hoping it was a collective photo project where people submitted photos of themselves running from the camera. Maybe we can convince him to expand the project if we send in our own tributes to this fun project.

Some nice lighters from Tsubota Pearl. If you happen to be in Chicago you can pick them up from Post 27, that's where I came across them. Otherwise, they are available here as well as other online shops.
