If you’re a fan of photography and of Bill Watterson’s popular comic strip Calvin and Hobbes, you’ll probably love what Oregon-based freelance photographer Michael S. Den Beste has been working on recently. He’s using his Photoshoppin’ skills to blend Calvin and Hobbes characters into photographs of real world locations that match the settings seen in the comics. The results are magical, beautiful, and oh-so-very-fun.




Awesome idea! I’ve enjoyed many a Calvin strip, so seeing these brought a big smile.
Yes; they’re brilliant and also captures the feeling of the comic strip I think.

These are wonderful and they really capture exactly what imagination is all about.
