18 Brilliant Photo Manipulations by Erik Johansson
232Kviews
We first wrote about Erik Johansson, a Swedish photographer and retoucher, 4 years ago, when he was still a computer engineering student. Even back then, despite lack of professional training in creative photography, his wild photo manipulations would be a stand-out example of photo editing.
Erik’s stunning pictures have a two-fold effect: on the one hand, it’s completely unbelievable and reality-defying, while on the other hand, the high-skilled retouching makes these cool photos look almost real. The photographer first develops a creative idea in his head before he sets out to make the pictures; he even models in some of them himself – yes, that’s the blond guy, distorting his face with his own fist!
Erik says he has been drawing for as long as he can remember – may be influenced by his painter grandmother – but his first digital camera at the age of 15 opened up a whole new world for the guy: “Being used to drawing it felt quite strange to be done after capturing a photo, it wasn’t the process of creating something in the same way.” He picked up his interest for retouching while studying, and today is a prolific artist, working on both commissions and personal projects. Let his beautiful photos and their fantasy worlds absorb you!
