supernatural straight out of fairy tales. You showed us modern and artistic takes on the Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Snow White and other story characters. We saw you reading and reading to others, and you also went out to capture the atmosphere described in so many of the wonderful stories that tell us tales that happened once upon a time.

branches of the U.S. Federal Government share their activities in photos on Flickr, and we’re always happy to see what they’re up to and what they offer. But on this day, a shutdown from Congress has furloughed 800,000 federal workers and closed hundreds of national parks, causing a nationwide disruption that’s been absent for 17 years. It’s an immensely impactful paralysis of governmental services and a massive financial setback for many Americans. And to illustrate this result of political gridlock, here are the photographic contributions from sources suffering from closures and images of disappointment during this debacle.</p> <p class="sixforty">What will you miss?

Ben says the idea was the result of a long graphic exploration and the evolution of his artistic ability.</p> <p class="sixforty"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/7286423140/" title="Pencil Vs Camera - 66 by Ben Heine, on Flickr"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://s0.wp.com/wp-content/themes/vip/plugins/lazy-load/images/1x1.trans.gif?m=1322061781g" data-lazy-src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7077/7286423140_0db1727ef6_n.jpg" width="320" height="195" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 66" border="0"/><noscript><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7077/7286423140_0db1727ef6_n.jpg" width="320" height="195" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 66" border="0"/></noscript></a> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/4536421796/" title="Pencil Vs Camera - 7 by Ben Heine, on Flickr"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://s0.wp.com/wp-content/themes/vip/plugins/lazy-load/images/1x1.trans.gif?m=1322061781g" data-lazy-src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4056/4536421796_c8e9199fd7_n.jpg" width="320" height="215" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 7" border="0"/><noscript><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4056/4536421796_c8e9199fd7_n.jpg" width="320" height="215" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 7" border="0"/></noscript></a></p> <p class="sixforty">“The initial idea happened randomly while I was writing a letter in 2010,” Ben explains. “When I held the letter up to put it inside an envelope, I noticed the paper was transparent enough that I could see my television in the background. I suddenly saw two images working together: the words on the paper and the action of the television. It was surreal, and I instantly thought I could do something with this.”</p> <p class="sixforty">“The very next day I made <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/4516416923/">Pencil vs. Camera #1</a>,” Ben says. “It wasn’t very creative, but it was the beginning of this new concept. Since then, it’s evolved into more and more complex drawings, and it’s always changing into something bigger and better.”</p> <p class="sixforty">The process behind the series is very simple. Ben draws a picture by hand and then takes the photo of the drawing at a specific location. His hand is almost always visible in the image to represent the connection between viewer, artist and artwork.</p> <p class="sixforty"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/5243716906/" title="Pencil Vs Camera - 40 by Ben Heine, on Flickr"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://s0.wp.com/wp-content/themes/vip/plugins/lazy-load/images/1x1.trans.gif?m=1322061781g" data-lazy-src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5164/5243716906_e89147e300_n.jpg" width="320" height="233" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 40" border="0"/><noscript><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5164/5243716906_e89147e300_n.jpg" width="320" height="233" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 40" border="0"/></noscript></a> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/4561195225/" title="Pencil Vs Camera - 12 by Ben Heine, on Flickr"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://s0.wp.com/wp-content/themes/vip/plugins/lazy-load/images/1x1.trans.gif?m=1322061781g" data-lazy-src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4040/4561195225_839d20d8eb_n.jpg" width="320" height="213" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 12" border="0"/><noscript><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4040/4561195225_839d20d8eb_n.jpg" width="320" height="213" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 12" border="0"/></noscript></a></p> <p class="sixforty">“The drawing has to be nice, and the location where I’m taking the photo has to be interesting,” Ben says. “When I edit my photo, like every photographer, I’m always adjusting. Since these are raw images, I’m adjusting the light, the colors, the contrast – everything. In some cases, I adjust the composition because I want the final image to be perfect!”</p> <p class="sixforty">In “Pencil vs. Camera”, Ben generally focuses on <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/5692633261">architecture</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/5280690941">portraits</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/7879714396">animals</a>.

It’s a beautiful feeling.”</p> <p class="sixforty">There is also a lot of illusion and surrealism depicted in Ben’s art. Throughout his career he’s been influenced by famous artists like Rene Magritte. Ben says he likes to play with shapes, geometrics and create illusions with tricky objects and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/4628643042">perspectives</a>.</p> <p class="sixforty"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/5587033876/" title="1 - Pencil Vs Camera for Art Official Concept by Ben Heine, on Flickr"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://s0.wp.com/wp-content/themes/vip/plugins/lazy-load/images/1x1.trans.gif?m=1322061781g" data-lazy-src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5107/5587033876_aa103cdd1f_n.jpg" width="310" height="320" alt="1 - Pencil Vs Camera for Art Official Concept" border="0"/><noscript><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5107/5587033876_aa103cdd1f_n.jpg" width="310" height="320" alt="1 - Pencil Vs Camera for Art Official Concept" border="0"/></noscript></a> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/6836146560/" title="Pencil Vs Camera - 64 by Ben Heine, on Flickr"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://s0.wp.com/wp-content/themes/vip/plugins/lazy-load/images/1x1.trans.gif?m=1322061781g" data-lazy-src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7191/6836146560_e89d1eb141_n.jpg" width="320" height="228" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 64" border="0"/><noscript><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956im_/http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7191/6836146560_e89d1eb141_n.jpg" width="320" height="228" alt="Pencil Vs Camera - 64" border="0"/></noscript></a></p> <p class="sixforty">“One of my favorite images shows a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20131006125956/http://www.flickr.com/photos/benheine/6967423963">lion jumping out of the image</a>,” Ben says. “I took this photo in Tunisia and drew in a lion jumping and appearing. The picture is unfinished, because I mainly wanted to attract the attention of the viewer on the lion’s roar. I liked the powerful effect of this image – you know the lion’s screaming and shouting. For me, graphic art can sometimes be dull, but this image is powerful.”</p> <p class="sixforty">The reactions Ben’s received from his series has been extremely positive.
