I’ve featured the work of photographer Henry Hargreaves on CMYBacon a couple of times in the past (here and here). For his latest project, he recreated five different iconic subway maps using everyday materials – spaghetti, M&M’s, yarn, pipe cleaners and ribbon.

Henry is a wonderfully creative guy and I’m always excited to see what he comes up with next. Be sure to check out his website to see more of his projects. (Thank you, Henry, for sharing your work with CMYBacon!)

OK seriously, these are awesome. Flickr user Jason Hull takes old plastic film cameras that he finds at thrift stores and flea markets, guts them and converts them into nightlights. Brilliant.

Check out Jason’s Flickr page to see more.

Mark O’Brien, who has created any number of amazing cardboard sculptures, made this cool cardboard SLR camera. If only it actually worked, like the Lego camera I wrote about a while ago…

Some of you may recall seeing the incredibly colorful Food of the Rainbow series by photographer Henry Hargreaves last summer. Well, Henry has done it again and much to my delight, he’s created an alphabet made entirely out of bacon! That’s one tasty typeface.

How cool are these camera cookies from Manjar? My favorite is definitely the Polaroid. The cookies, which are sugar cookies topped with fondant, can be ordered from Manjar’s website.

In honor of America’s independence day, here’s a photo I took last weekend of the Statue of Liberty from the Staten Island Ferry. Happy Fourth of July!
