What is left of the value of a one-dollar bill? By Prieur du Plessis, on December 1st, 2009 posted in: Dollar, Investment  4 people had their say - chime in!
A Chinese-American named Won Park has found the answer. View the pictures below and you will understand what is meant. The technique applied is called Origami and is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. The objective of this art is to create an image of an object using geometric folds and crease patterns if achievable without the use of gluing or cutting the paper, and using only one piece of paper for each figure. Won Park has a master’s degree in Origami. He is also called the “money folder”, a practitioner of origami whose “canvas” is the US one-dollar bill. Bending, twisting, and folding, he creates life-like shapes in stunning detail. Quite amazing … One-dollar Fish

Very cool stuff. Although I have to be skeptical about a Masters degree in Origami. Really? Although if anybody does, this guy certainly deserves an advanced degree in this subject. Amazing.
The spider and the scorpion are identical pictures, BTW.
Clearly the spider and the scorpion are not the same photo. Please see [excuse the pun] your optometrist.

He changed the scorpion picture, presumably due to my comment.
I realize how it would look to you, but believe me, the scorpion picture was previous wrong, showing the spider instead. A little deduction on your part would have had you come to the conclusion that it was wrong when I commented, and then fixed before you viewed it. You might think deeper the next time.
It still shows that way on The Big Picture blog post where this was also posted. Just for the record.

Onlooker, Steven: Yes, I corrected the pictures. I should have posted a comment earlier.
