Ian Koviak said...: what a great cover. Simple and elegant. I'm sure this was a photoshop job. Looks great.; December 15, 2008 at 8:27 PM
Anonymous said...: Thanks for posting my cover and for your compliment.

I am not sure how the photographer achieved this image but I personally didn't do any Photoshop editing besides removing the background.

This was just one of those lucky moments when an image search turns up something perfect: its a simple yet strange juxtaposition evoking meaning on its own and within the context of the pages it frames.; December 18, 2008 at 1:11 PM
LeeAnn said...: As far as I know, there was no photoshop involved aside from removing the background. The image is from Getty. Here is a link to the original:

Tal said...: thanks for the feedback Scott and LeeAnn. I love the type on this as well. I can't believe that's a chimp's feet!; December 18, 2008 at 3:12 PM
