Photographer Rune Guneriussen
Photographer Rune Guneriussen from Norway combines Landscapes with household objects. The description from “Cool Hunting” is way better then anything i could write:
“The scenes capture a peculiarly Nordic combination of otherworldliness and dark humor. A herd of desk lamps turn their lighted heads downwards to graze in the twilight of a lonely Savannah. Two chairs battle for supremacy on a lonely beach amidst a group of helpless bystanders. A line of telephones negotiates a stony mountain pass. While Guneriussen offers no interpretations of her work, the surreal juxtaposition of man-made objects with distinctly wild settings evokes the fragility and ultimately the ridiculousness of man’s efforts to subdue nature. The clean, sterile lines of the objects stand in defiant contrast to the ragged edges of the stones, waves and trees around them. “I really like this contrast, the colors and lights of nordic landscapes. Some could be mimicking animals, others are just completely misplaced..i think “Telefon” is my favourite.
And there´s lots of other great work on her website. I specially like “Evolution” and “Kraft”.

Stop Motion Animation Film “Lucia & Luis”
Stop motion video “LUIS” (Part 2 of 2) by Niles Atallah, Cristobal Leon & Joaquin Cociña on Vimeo.
This video is wicked. I love the pictures, the dark and eerie atmosphere with these japanese horror elements. The execution of the idea and the the style of the stop motion effects let the whole video become a masterpiece of its own. The commission of the Illustrative thought the same and they decided to exhibit it. It’s now displayed in Berlin. I was there and it is worth to visit the exhibition, the work is terrific and expressive. The artists are very talented and you can see a whole bunch of styles, which creates the current illustration movements.
Established in Berlin in 2006, Illustrative has been held twice in Berlin (2006 & 2007), once in Paris (2007), and once in Zürich (2008). Being a big success right from the start it managed to be the leading international forum for contemporary illustration and graphic arts. It’s Taking place from October 16 – November 1 in Berlin. ›› Read the whole Article…
Dan Tobin Smith – Still Life Photography
Dan Tobin Smith does some amazing Installations for Still Life Photography. As you can see there is almost no Photoshop involved and these Pics require a massive effort. See lots more on his website, where he shows some impressive ads for clients like sony, visa or the new album cover of the hip hop artist Jay Z. I love the colors and intensity of these..Letter Y is my favourite and in the same time the most recent one (dated September 2009).

Lichtfaktor from Cologne
Very cool way to use light for fotos and videos by Lichtfaktor from Cologne ..way to go.
“The Cologne artists’ collective, consisting of VJ $ehvermögen (photographer and VJ since 1997 with many years of experience in the event field) and JIAR (communications designer and graffiti artist), experiments with the possibilities yielded by bulb (long-term) exposure and painting. Their aim is to explore all aspects of “lightwriting” and to develop it further.”See more on their website – http://www.lichtfaktor.eu

Nami
Love these Pics! From a Photobook by Syoin Kajii called Nami (the japanese word for wave).
They made me think about the strenght of the ocean i have witnessed while living close to the atlantic for almost my entire life. Not as asthetic as the ones from Clark Little but raw..untreated..
Underwater Photography by Valerie Morignat
A very special atmosphere comes along while i look at these Pictures…i think most of us have wittnessed the moment when we dive underwater und look up…hold still…and gravity turns insignificant. Shouldn´t Art or Photography make us think or at least feel something?! In this case it worked. Great job.

Suicide Girls – Fight Club
Pretty cool and somehow sexy Fotostory by Suicide Girls…
What they say about themselves:
“With a vibrant, sex positive community of women (and men), SuicideGirls was founded on the belief that creativity, personality and intelligence are not incompatible with sexy, compelling entertainment, and millions of people agree. The site mixes the smarts, enthusiasm and DIY attitude of the best music and alternative culture sites with an unapologetic, grassroots approach to sexuality.” Visit the Fotostory here.

Truly impressive Photography by Dustin Humphrey for the Dopamine brand campaign of the brand “Insight”.
Here comes the description:
The surf installation was inspired by Beatnick;, Steve Gorrow embarked on a journey beneath the sea to explore the depths of the mind and creativity. Along with the help of his brother, Steve shipped out to Bali to take on the massive feat of building above and beneath the sea to give birth to the latest Insight surf spectacle, and that is Dopamine. Not one to cut corners on creativity, Steve combined upside down bedrooms, naked girls on motor bikes and underwater shanty towns with the amazing skill of the Insight surf team (surfnics) and the photographic talents of Dustin Humphrey to create an array of split double world madness. Welcome to Insight’s latest surf campaign featuring surfers Kai Otton, Luke Stedman, Warren Smith, Jared Mell, Made Lana,Jason Apparicio & The Jamaican Surf Team.”
Photographer: Claire Martin
This is up to you Andrea. Claire Martin began her career by pursuing a degree in Social Work with a minor in Anthropology, however, she quickly changed her focus to Photography when she realized that greater change can be effected through this medium. The photograph reveals and illuminates; it educates and inspires action. Her recent work in the Vancouver Downtown East Side, Canada’s poorest neighbourhood, has brought to light terrible injustices and the government’s failure to address the social problems that plague this community. This series has been recognized by the IPA with a nomination for Deeper Perspective Photographer of the Year.
Claire currently resides in Slab City, California where she is documenting a community of people that live off the grid amid harsh desert conditions, in a quest to be free.
