It isn't really photographic but it is all about the design of the artwork for the album "Born and Raised" by John Mayer. The design work and creation by David A. Smith is incredibly detailed. For all those of you doing the album cover challenge, it is a must see!

That's what I like about these long videos. Folks either skip it or they watch and the comments only roll in slowly. I was gobsmacked at the details he could get in that glass. @huvesaker @gphelps5

Wow -- I needed a break (or shall I say, distraction?) and found myself marveling at the exquisite videography in telling a story so perfectly. I learned a lot about photography as I analyzed how beautifully this story was told, and the artwork being shown was amazing as well.

But -- what's with the hands at 10:23 ???

how refreshing (in these days) to see not only a musician actually put thought into an album cover but also the craft the artist keeps alive.. amazing work Mr Smith does.. thanks for the share.. very cool!
