YouTube - Kseniya Simonova's Amazing Sand Drawing (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOhf3OvRXKg)

I've seen this before but an HD version that's floating around somewhere... can't recall where I saw it. In any event, it's just remarkable the talent she has.

I saw this about a month back, thought it was really cool then, and still think it's really cool now.
