was checking out a site by photographer Abelardo Morell and was blown away by a series of pictures he made by blacking out all his windows except for a small pinhole then using a large flat film camera and a 8hours+ exposure.

International Cost-of-Living Calculator

clutch

We deal with items and personnel from multiple countries, and I was wondering if someone knew of a good cost-of-living calculator (and possibly salary charts) for the UK, Germany, and Italy. It would be nice to understand what typical salaries are and how they translate to the US market.
