Small Worlds Project

Remember the Little Big Berlin video I posted on my blog recently? Well, I found a photographer and filmmaker who outshines this one. His name is Keith Loutit. He is even better at transforming real-life places and events into miniature versions. He started a project, Small Worlds Project. A little more information from his website:
Small Worlds is Loutit's most ambitious project to date, documenting the world's great cities, landscapes and monuments of the ancient world in miniature. In a time of population explosion, impacts to our environment, and concern over limited resources our world feels smaller than ever. But through Loutit's lens the world seems simple and uncomplicated, the differences between people are reduced, and obstacles seem easily overcome. By presenting a view of the world from 'the outside in' Loutit aims to tell an inspirational story of mankind working together as one. We will see cities being built, the world's great events, and daily life all in Loutit's trademark style of miniaturization.
