    Joshua Callaghan had returned for another round of street beautification by use of expert urban camouflage. All of the utility boxes, which are a favorite of street artists of all stripes, are wrapped in vinyl that as been expertly created digitally by the artist to mimic the surroundings as much as possible, including (in some cases) cars. Depending on the angle, the effect is either magical or disconcerting. All photos by the great Lord Jim.
