It is just a starting point and may inspire you to take some photos on white backgrounds yourself and play with the same concept on your own. Most of the images were taken by photographer Dongkui Lin, and others were taken from the Wikipedia Commons, a great source for copyright free images.A FULL COLOR version is also available.
