How the Army Corps of Engineers Made Us Love Their 2023 Calendar: They Added Giant Cats!

[nightwing1240]

Engineering might be boring to over half the country, but this government agency got creative in imagining the purr-fect way to engage everyone.

The new 2023 calendar highlighting the achievements of the US Army Corps of Engineers features giant cats superimposed in photos of their engineering successes.

The Portland District of the Corps needed an eye-catching way of showing off their civil works programs across Oregon and southwestern Washington.

8. Giant cats are eye-catching

but I wonder how Matt McCarthy feels about the appropriation of his idea by a government agency? It's probable that one can't copyright ideas like putting giant cats in random landscapes, but, as a photographer myself, it is just another reminder that it's very difficult to get credit for a unique and creative style.
