This continuation of the well-established and popular series of found photography books, provides another collection of intriguing images. This time its subject is one of the earliest successful photographic blogs, a site documenting the story of Oolong, a Japanese rabbit whose unusually flat head made it ideal for balancing objects. Starting in 1999, hundreds of images were posted by Oolong‘s owner, Akutagawa Hironori, each showing this otherwise ordinary creature with an unusual item placed squarly on his skull. These items, ranging form cakes and teapots to other household objects, were always shot in low resolution and from the same angle.
