thats a spectacular mind [censored]...

great photoshop on some MC escher legos.

Edit:

Guess that doesn't have to be a photo edit, could be real, but would only look right from that exact angle. neat either way.

It's real. I saw a website once with this and a bunch of others, with explanations for how they pulled it off. It was amazing.

I disagree - I think it's a perspective trick. The parts of the aqueduct that emanate from the leftmost tower only appear to be connected to the ones on the rightmost tower, but they're really not.

Yeah, I read "the answers", but I figured it was just something along the lines of the guy with the chalk drawings on the sidewalk.
