30 Magical Pics That Show The Human And Animal Bond, Captured By A Russian Photographer
These pictures are what dreams and fairytales are made of—Russian photographer Katerina Plotnikova creates beautiful portraits that balance between the real and surreal. While she nails lighting, composition, and other important aspects of the craft, arguably the most impressive feature of Plotnikova's work is her feature of animals that we aren't used to seeing in fine-art photography. Like a bear. Or a moose.
While seemingly dangerous, these ideas were made possible with the help of professional animal trainers.
And even if Plotnikova includes a more "conventional" animal, every pixel of her photos radiates such rich mysticism, her work is absolutely enchanting

That is some great costuming right there. See how the yellow undertones of her dress play up the golden in the owl's underwing? And her sleeves and collar are the same color as the flowers? Genius.

Not just a tender girl: those spines on the back of the cloak add a fierce element.

The pictures are beautiful but it scares me to think of where they take these animals from and how come they are so tamed

My animal rescue head has to wonder if these animals are all ok, I suspect some of them may be sedated, which is no good. Stunning pics though, the closest I can get is a picture of me on the sofa in shorts and a food stained t-shirt with a dog and some cats all fighting for space.
