Description
This one may be a bit too exclusive but I don't care. I tried to make it look cool so you could salvage something from the inside joke only 2 or 3 people are going to get.I live in a city called Karlsruhe in Germany. It's boring. One of the landmarks is the castle and the statue of the city founder, as well as the pyramid tomb he was buried in. I combined the statue and pyramid to make it look like the guy is standing in flames.
Karlsruhe is gunning to be the Europakulturehauptstadt 2010, as in the European Cultural Capital city 2010. It hasn't got a prayer. But the campaign's slogan is "MIT RECHT" or "WITH RIGHT", I just adjusted it to "MIT RETCH" and made the statue retch accordingly.
One thing I like about this part of the country is that you can pick up free postcards in many places, lots of them are quite well designed advertisments. I pick many up and so I decided to make one of my own that has to do with my feelings for the city at the moment and it's ambitions.
I made this entirely out of my own photographs. Canon A70 if you must know.

Nice. I'm assuming you made his tongue stick out...or that would be a rather odd statue. I also like how you bent the pyramid around to make the flames. The background suits the image as well. Nice job.
