Felix Salazar is an LA-based photographer and composer. His underwater macro shots of corals and anemones are breathtakingly detailed. Who would have ever thought flowers that bloomed beneath the waves of the sea were this colorful? Felix cheated a bit though, these weren’t taken ‘neath the waves of an actual sea. These corals are residents of huge salt-water aquariums. A cynic may scream “PHOTOSHOP!!!” at the colors of the corals, but these pics were the ones he got ‘just right’, culled from the hundreds of mediocre attempts.

Have you ever said ‘hi’ to a person on the street and realized to your horror that they only look like someone you know? Canadian photographer François Brunelle is fascinated by this worldwide phenomena of look-alike that he created an entire series of portraits featuring strangers with uncanny resemblance to each other. He calls his series “I’m not a look-alike!“. The subjects, who are unrelated to each other, posed as one would when having a family portrait taken. The similarities of his subjects were further enhanced by their identical clothes and expressions.

Stanislav Aristov’s match art was born when he was unable to come up with an idea for a photo competition. He lit a match (out of boredom, I assume, since he doesn’t smoke) and observed the patterns formed by the flame. He found out that the burned wood also had artistic potential. He has had no professional exhibitions yet, but his work is slowly getting international attention over the internet.

British photographer Caulton Morris is not a fan of digital manipulation, nor is he fond of standing on his feet. His series entitled ‘Upside’ is in no way digitally altered to make it look like he’s doing a headstand in some of the most uncomfortable locations. He really is doing a headstand in the toilet, a brick wall, a canoe, a cobbled street, a bathtub, and on tufts of grass. He usually takes them himself with a 10-second self-timer.

Andrey has been working in the advertising industry for years, mostly in graphic design. This experience has served him well when he went into freelance work. He uses *inObraS as his creative handle on deviantArt.
