Mareen Fischinger takes hundreds of individual photographs of one view then by making semi-transparent layers she recreates the scenery by making a huge photo collage.

Man plays piano to blind elephants
Mr Barton moved to Thailand with his wife 16 years ago so they could be closer to the elephants. Barton took also his piano in the the mountain of Kanchanaburi to help raise money for blind elephants
'It was a 50th birthday present to myself. My wife and I have been working with blind elephants for many years, and I thought it might be something they would enjoy to listen to. I sat down and thought, what do you play to an elephant? You only get a short time, so I started trawling through my books and then Slow Movement 2 from Beethoven's Pathetique Sonata just stuck", he said.
