Flickr Toy Love: The Beauty of P!ng
OMG! It's been ages since we've seen a Flickr Toy Love post, but I arrive with an incredibly talented artist for your enjoyment. Now, there are times when you look at shots of toys and are mesmerized by the life that they have been given through the photographer's lens. Then, there are times you look at a photo and can't help but be entranced by its beauty. When it comes to P!ng, I definitely experience a combination both these emotions. Unlike the previous photographers we've featured from Flickr, P!ng manages to catch each piece he shoots in an impeccably beautiful portrait-like shot. I love his photos and am lucky that he took the time to answer some questions in between his travels. Take a look for yourself, and then make your way on over to his Flickr page and experience the magic he captures in every shot! I have to add that I am envious of his talent ... but even more envious of his collection.
What was the first designer toy you ever bought?  How'd you get into toy photography?  Who's your favorite toy designer? I see extensive Tim Biskup and JLED pics in your collection. I'm super curious.  What's your favorite photo?    I have to say-- I've never wanted to make an interview last longer just to post more photos. I implore that you go check out his collection. If you have a Flickr, add P!ng stat! Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
