Great picture!
Interesting tidbit: There's even a Snopes link for that one! Seems a lot of people have been forwarding the false story that this picture was the last ever taken by Japanese-born nature photographer Michio Hoshino. Hoshino did in fact die after being mauled by a bear in 1996, but not this one. According to Snopes, this photo was deliberately staged for a "last-photo hoax" contest. |

It is just one of a series of "last photos" joke pictures. I doubt the bear one was specifically targeted at the photographer Michio Hoshino, just that people have co-opted it to fit the story.

Sculptor Elena Kliment used 6ookg. of Belgian chocolate to create everything from the fireplace, to the tea cups and the chest of drawers. All ye Chocaholics help yourselves. |
