What were you doing at 14yo ?

i was chasing girls, (unsuccessfully), working hard on my left hook in the ring and being a beligerant twat at centre half for the sutherland sharks.
Meanwhile a 14yo kid by the name of Zev Hoover is creating masterpieces. the creativity and imagination shown by this young man is breath taking and his skill at this age leaves me gobsmacked.

:cheers:

its not even the processing ability he has that is amazing (which is amazing really) but the concepts, compositions and execution which are amazing.

No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.

This kid is remarkable, the eye for light and the ability to manipulate images into art is simply mind blowing!! simply loved looking through his images on Flickr. Thanks for the link!

In one word "inspirational". Thanks for sharing
this link with us. I believe I was being an
obnoxious adolescent with a pimply face and
cleverer than anybody else - a total pr..k!
