This Photo Sold For R75 Million

One has to enjoy and admire the amount of money that comes to life at an art auction. Surely they must pump something into the air filter system, like a gas that makes one spend millions?

There has been a lot to do with photography lately, and that just goes to show that whilst we may all be Instagramming and Snapchatting the hell out of absolutely everything, there is still actual, real talent out there.

It was shot by Peter Lik in Arizona’s Antelope Canyon, and Lik just sold it for $6.5million.

Yes, put down your calculator. That is R75million.

It has beaten the previous record by a cool $2.2million, which was sold in 2011.

At least this one was in colour…
