The photograph explores the tension between constraint and self-discovery, between isolation and the yearning to engage with the world beyond imposed limits. In a time when truth is often obscured, Breaktruth captures the fragile yet profound moment of revelation—an echo of resilience, desire, and the unstoppable force of human will.

Drifting between awareness and a dream, she clings to a fragile link—imperfect, outdated, yet still present—reflecting a suppressed need to stay connected, even as she retreats into her own subconscious realm.

A beautiful girl, bathed in soft light and surrounded by nature’s calm, becomes part of a fleeting dream—almost a fairy—as the LensBaby’s signature blur gently dissolves the boundaries of time and place.

A marionette without a puppeteer, trapped in the silent choreography of her own mind, where strings of thought pull in every direction.

A quiet moment by the sea, framed by rusted metal and crumbling concrete. A contrast between decay and relaxation, where time seems to stand still between the rough past and the soft tide.

A mysterious cloaked woman, her red hair glowing like fire against the desert twilight, sits in quiet strength before an ancient citadel. At her side, a loyal dog stands watch, symbolizing guidance and companionship. This evocative image blends fantasy and history, speaking to resilience, solitude, and the enduring human spirit.

behind glass and silence, a mannequin in gold gazes into nothingness — yet within her, the silhouette of a passerby flickers like a memory she cannot name. something stirs, as if her chest remembers what her body never lived.

This work is set within a decaying factory, its exposed beams and atmosphere of neglect framing three dolls dressed in tattered Victorian and burlesque-inspired attire. A red-haired figure in a frayed green dress sits vacant-eyed, tethered to reels of ribbon, scissors, and fragments of her past. Nearby, another slouches against a “Standard Doll” poster, while a third doll salutes a bygone era with a top hat beside a vintage Singer sewing machine. Their painted faces evoke both fragility and resignation. Once commodities, now obsolete, they drown despair in alcohol, surrounded by discarded bottles and faded invoices. The interplay of dolls, factory, and relics becomes a meditation on disposability, addiction, and fractured identity.

This surreal fine art photograph, part of the ongoing series Synthetic Dreams, personifies the fragility of those who retreat into their inner worlds—challenging the boundary between the artificial and the real.

This is an image I took when I was doing the still photography on a short film called WUSS on IMDB www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=6ET6ibK...

 

Every image tells a story, but some images define a story. This portrait was chosen as the official poster image for the short film WUSS, capturing the essence of its tone and emotion. The expression in his eyes, the subtle tension in his expression/posture, and the cinematic lighting all contribute to a visual that speaks before a single word is spoken.

 

This image is not just a still, it’s a moment, a feeling, a preview of a larger narrative. Can a single frame capture the weight of a film? This one tries.

You walk through narrow alleys, flanked by lanterns and wrought-iron balconies, when suddenly… the bell tower. The Cathedral of Toledo’s tower looms powerfully from the shadows, like a stone sentinel watching over the city for centuries.

 

In this black and white shot, I aimed to highlight the contrast between the grandeur of Gothic architecture and the intimacy of Toledo’s streets. A play of light and perspective that reveals the surprise hidden around the city’s timeless corners.

I took this image because it felt quietly ironic. Here we are at the beach with wide open skies, the calm of the sea, and yet every single person is absorbed in something handheld. A magazine, a phone, a snack, even a sleeve. The view is in front of them, but their attention is inward, focused and hunched. I was drawn to the way these figures echoed one another, framed by those elegant white benches that curve like parentheses around private little worlds. A study in contrast: openness all around, but the gaze directed down.

I took this picture of a beautiful lady in a small French village. Is she also French? Who knows?

 

I made a second picture I might share this one in a day, and I'm curious to hear what you think. Did she know I was taking a picture? It looks like she was posing for me.

the man walks with determination, his hands gripping two heavy bottles, each one reflecting the weight of a daily grind. in his stride, thereâs a quiet resilience against the sun's glare and the shadows of the plaza mayor in palma. the play of light and shadow, the stark contrast between his dark shirt and the pale stone archways, creates a striking portrait of strength and endurance. the scene tells a story of movement, purpose, and the simple, relentless rhythms of urban life. thereâs an honesty here â an unfiltered moment caught in the passing of time, where every step feels deliberate, every shadow meaningful.

In this scene, the electricity in the old doll factory has been shut off. An abandoned doll sits powerless against the wall, while a friend works to revive her using the company’s forgotten steam fire engine. With a spanner in hand and a toolbox at her side, she seeks an alternative energy source for renewal. The work reflects resilience, ingenuity, and the determination to restore what has been cast aside, contrasting fragile human-like figures with the strength of industrial machinery.

captured in magaluf, this photo titled "approaching" evokes the imagery of an airplane approaching a runway. a solitary seagull prepares to land, its wings half-spread in a moment of balance and grace. the empty urban background with trees, benches, and walkways creates an intriguing backdrop that contrasts the movement and dynamism of the bird. the black-and-white tones enhance the graphic elements and structure of the scene, emphasizing the geometric forms of the crosswalk and the urban environment. this image captures a moment of flight and invites viewers to recognize the parallels between natural and human movements.
