The $80 million rabbit - 09-26-2008, 12:13 AM


Some art work just blows my mind. This piece by artist Jeff Koons is made of stainless steel and owned by billionaire Eli Broad. It was worth $12 million in 2005 and recently sold for $80 million. I'm in the wrong businesss!

Have you thought about how much they paid for the photo? For something like that? Perhaps it is WHAT you photograph...
