Image of the Day: Aquarium Phonebooth - Food - GOOD - StumbleUpon Lighting designer Benoit Deseille and artist Benedetto Bufalino transformed this phone booth in Lyon, France, into an aquarium, as part of the city's annual Festival of Light.

So it is sometimes difficult to define whether art is creating an illusion or a hallucination in your mind when it is viewed.

This kind of street art is very neat and impressive to come across in the late hours. See more of Neff’s work here.
