NOT MY PHOTO, in fact not a photo at all, just a very detailed painting. It really looks like a photo, view more of his work at the link below.

Unlike other photorealistic painters, Walsh does not use a camera to prep for his paintings. Instead of basing his works on photographs, he produces up to 100 sketches in order to recreate an urban scene, a process that can take up to three or four months, according to the blog Colossal. The work pays off in vivid, complex paintings that Walsh describes on his website:

"I am fascinated by the city, itÂ’s visual complexity and constant state of flux. The act of painting is an attempt fix this information and give vision to our experience of living within it."
