Great New Artists

I know this is not exactly professional but: OMG cutest pictures ever!

And the most creative child photography I have seen in a long time. Of course I am talking about another German photographer (and also wondering how many there are that are this brilliant).

After years of not being able to find ANY new photography I like I have found two in the same week. This one I like for a totally different reason than the last. The series “Dreams of Flying” is one that everyone can relate to. All of the pictures are staged on the ground with Children posing as superheroes, divers and other fantasy characters and photographed from the air. It’s one thing to see a great photo manipulator make people look like they are flying or to stage someone as flying on wires but it’s a totally  different thing to see an artist use something so common (the ground) in such an uncommon and creative way. This series is a book but for me I can’t think of anything better than seeing these visions of dreams in my own fantasy playground–the computer screen.

His website is great too.
