I came across it while searching for something else, but couldn't find any info on it.

thanks, me3dia! You magnificent bustard.

Yes, it's part of the 'Ashes and Snow' series by Gregory Colbert.

Astonishing, beautiful pictures.

And I won't mind at all if you say my bust is magnificent too.

Ooh, I think essexjan is more correct than me.

I first came across these pictures about a year ago and they blew me away with their simplicity and beauty.

I did see that one before, Jan! So amazing.

I saw the "ashes and snow" site some time ago, but somehow managed to miss the cheetah and child image, I guess.
