Wow. You always took it for granted that ‘Where’s Waldo?’ books contained Waldo. One artist made these illuminating Photoshops showing what it would be like if Waldo wasn’t there.

1. Once you see this image without Waldo, it’s hard to look at it the same way again.

2. This city street is completely transformed without Waldo.

3. Can’t unsee.

4. People think they have to look for Waldo. What if you didn’t have a Waldo to find?

5. Without Waldo, this is just another mass of people. No better. No worse.

6. Where’s Waldo? Indeed.

7. Simply stunning.
