Paweł Kadysz Especially that it required them to spend lots of money on travel. I was quite amazed. It is kind of art I think.

Paweł Kadysz After finishing my first project I had the idea to redo every single of my photos again - day by day - just to see how my photography improved during that year. So copying yourself is another idea ;)

365 Shades of Calvados I have some favourite pictures of mine, which I would gladly redo in better conditions and quality.
Besides, copying other people's works is a great learning experience. It's not always easy to achieve the same result even using the same cameras & lenses :)

Ian Prince Hihi about Pawel's idea about copying year one in year two...that would be really weird.....and probably fun.... for a few days ;) That said, I've often been tempted to copy other photos I've seen here on tookapic...staying within the tookapic spirit of "fun and playful" of course. Maybe that would make for an interesting weekly theme ;)

Markus Jansson Saw this as well! I agree – It almost of has to be some kind of art project. It's too elaborate, costly and complicated to simply be some wannabe stalker creep.

Bridget Braun Ha, i read about this last night actually.... where do these people get all their money, can i have some?

365 Shades of Calvados I saw the pictures and I think the main problem with the whole story is not that someone is copying locations and composition but that he also STEALS photos and uploads as his own. Here's is an example: tinyurl.com/h499sk4
I started to compare these two and I realized the boats and shadows were ideally in the same position which wouldn't have been possible even if the copy-picture was taken 5 minutes later. Others have noticed this fraud as well and when the original author wanted to react he got blocked.

Aaron Yeah, it's all faked for social media attention and followers. It worked, too.
