Fall 2000 Cover

Pete McArthur, featured in our story on studio photographers, loves to create sets and props so playfully composed and richly colored that people think they must have been created on a computer. His cover illustration, of a meticulously painted model boat was composed entirely in the camera. It is a testimony to McArthur's craft, and evidence of what may be the next big trend in studio work: Creating images so real, people think they are digital.
