A few selected photos from the 2009 Icon festival ("Cities of the Future") - Israel's biggest week long geek-con.
Guests of honour this year included Bill Willingham of Fables, and Patrick J. Gyger of the Swiss Maison D'Ailleurs. Photographing the convention, was, me!
More sets are on my facebook page (about a thousand pictures in total, out of the 2041), and there's an expanded set of the Flickr photos on my Picasa page, here:

Genius is always allowed some leeway, once the hammer has been pried from its hands and the blood has been cleaned up.
To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.
