The Madrid-based advertising and industrial photographer Miguel Vallinas has done a wonderful job on matching the animals to their attire. You may thing well it's just animals in clothes but if you look closer you will see more than that. Aside from the solid retouching, lighting and overall execution, Vallinas took this anthropomorphic project a bit further and imagined what the fully-realized wardrobe of each animal might look like if it were wearing human clothes.

Titled Segundas Pieles (Second Skins), the ongoing series includes some 50+ animals whose personalities seem to be perfectly amplified by their pitch-perfect attire, making the portraits just a bit more human than animal. Picked out a couple of my favorites but feel free to check them all out here.

These portraits are just breathtaking of the north face of the Matterhorn. Nenad Saljic has study the north face for over three years and he has captured this iconic Alp structure no less than a thousand times.

He uses a black and white medium and has demonstrated how weather, light and composition can drastically change a photographic subject through time.

Nenad states, “I want my images to compress the passing of time – the beauty of the wind and the clouds dancing around the mountain.”

You can read about and view more photos of the Matterhorn on his portfoilio.

Artist Clement Briend traveled to Cambodia to photograph deities and spirits from Cambodian culture to overlay them on trees in several urban areas with digital projectors. As you can see, they look amazing and it would be something that I would like to see in person. Here is what he had to say about the project.

"It’s a beautiful surprise when the projected spirits awaken and reveal themselves at night as though they are made of the towering trees themselves. The photographic light installations echo the spirituality of the few sprouts of nature in the predominantly urban landscapes. It is a visual imagining of the divine figures that inhabit the world, as seen through an environmentally aware spiritual eye."

You can see more images from this series on Briend's website.

These photos remind me of a morning filled with wonder and ideas. Boguslaw saw this and his idea became a memory captured in photography. In the brief window when night clashes with morning and the fog was heavy, but a new day of light was able to clear the way. Boguslaw positioned himself atop a high mountain peak and captured these beautiful photos.  See more photos by Boguslaw here.

Kyle Thompson would describe himself as a surrealist photographer and I would have to agree. Going through some of his work on Imgur is just great. Not only do you get to see his works but you also get a sense of who this photographer is.  I have chosen to highlight some of his works below but don't stop there check out his site as well.

The Impossible Project has launched the Impossible Instant Lab on Kickstarter. It transforms any digital image via an iPhone into an instant photo that is exposed by using the light from the display, then it's processed and developed by chemicals. This device makes an image that can be view without the use of a phone anymore.

Pretty neat huh? Would you get one of these to turn your images from digital back to analog?

Montreal-based photographer Benoit Paillé has been creating this fascinating series of landscapes using a different lighting method involving a suspended glowing square. The images below are not photoshopped, the 1×1 meter light is instead hung in the center of each photograph and the resulting image shows the unique form of illumination that creeps into the surrounding area. Paillé says his goal is to redefine what a landscape photograph is by questioning its reality, creating a kind of poetic moment in space and time. You can see many more of his Alternative Landscapes on Flickr.
