Photocarver A whole new way to look at your pics

Aiming to bridge the gap between digital design and "physical, haptic, and handcrafted product" (and really, who isn't?!?), the folks at Photocarver developed a special milling machine that transforms digital images into large, high-relief'd wood panels that, when viewed from a distance, appear to be large-format black & white photos, but up close, reveal themselves as meticulously cut sculptures.

To have one made, simply upload a photo, select an orientation (portrait or landscape), the style of relief (stippled or linear), whether you prefer it left natural or dyed black, and your desired level of contrast.
