Surreal - characterized by fantastic imagery and incongruous juxtapositions

Surrealist Pop Art - Influenced by the theories of the pioneer of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, surrealistic pop images can be confusing and startling as those of dreams, having a realistic, though irrational style. They precisely describing dreamlike fantasy utilizing spontaneous technique, modeled upon the psychotherapeutic procedure of "free association" as a means to eliminate
conscious control in order to express the workings of the unconscious mind.

shot with 5 year old Dylan yesterday outside of a construction site – that is a pile of white gravel behind him. It was loud with traffic to the side and the construction trucks pouring the gravel behind him. I enjoyed the tire in the composition very much. It took great effort to talk him into taking his shirt off but then we set him free to just move around and react to the noise and turmoil around him. this was our favorite shot in the end.

i blended two layers of the same image in one layer of overlay mode and bumped levels to get a bit of intensity. the movement and noise and all that results comes from shooting what was going on at the moment. This is all 100% intentional yet 100% free – if you know what I mean.

yea its different than my “usual stuff” and I’m happy about that enjoy!

wouldn’t this make a kick ass album cover?
