    Almost freaky to look at, but yet I keep coming back to it to look again and again. Definitely not something I will be seeing in downtown Atlanta.

    Not sure I follow... looks like a photoshop job to me. In order to get the proper perspective, you'd have to be standing exactly where the cameraman was standing, and those paintings would be 40' - 80' long. Wouldn't mind looking at the original site though just to see what's up...

    Wow, those are really cool... i'm wondering about what Robin said, though... i think he's right, especially with the last one... What if you're on the other side of the pool...? Then you're standing closest to her foot, right...? Although, :), that might look pretty bugged out, too... Still some very cool stuff... Thanks for posting... i, too, would like to see the originals...

    Ah.. thanks for the link... found this on there:

    "During the seventeenth century, Baroque decoration often used this style to combine actual architectural elements with illusionistic painting. When standing at a particular point in space, the architecture blends with the decorative painting, forming an extraordinary combined image for the viewer."

    So yeah, you have to be standing in the right spot for it to look normal. Pretty cool :)

    How long does it take one to figure out this is something to master?

    It does look very good.
