Trey Ratcliff was born blind in one eye. Whether this apparent disability has got anything to do with the photos he make I’m not sure, but he has some interesting intepretations of hdr photos you can view here www.stuckincustoms.com/. If you’re interested in how he makes these images, check out his tutorial at www.stuckincustoms.com/hdr-tutorial/.

You may think these images are photoshopped, but they’re not, or so the artist claims. Chinese artist Li Wei doesn’t need the computer to create his surreal photographs, instead he employs the help of props such as mirrors, wires, scaffolding and acrobatics. His ‘Li Wei falls to …’ series is a mix of photography and performance art which shows the artist with his head and chest embedded into surfaces. I also find a few of his gravity defying shots particularly interesting. Try as I may, I might never arrive at how they were created.

Steve travels to less developed countries frequently to discover the beauty in the lands and its people. The stunning colors in his photos from Afganistan, Burma, Nepal and India reveal rare sights from these countries that are hidden from the casual tourist and less adventurous individuals.

Macro photography of everyday objects.
This was a class assignment, we’re supposed to find a space and do a photographic exploration. I came across this alley behind clark quay while wondering around the area. When I showed it to my hall mate the next day, he informed me that this place has a nick name ‘air con valley’. Oh well it did struck me that the walls were almost entirely filled with air-conditioner compressor units =)
