Photographer sells picture of a potato for £750,000

Yes, that’s how much photographer Kevin Abosch sold Potato #345 for after the buyer spotted it on his shop wall.

“It’s not the first time that someone has bought the art right off my wall,” he told.

But before you all start taking photos of vegetables in order to make a quick buck consider the following. Abosch, who works in both Dublin and Paris, is already known for taking photos of celebrities like Johnny Depp and Steven Spielberg. So this allowed him to negotiate the big price for the photo he took in 2010.
