Weird and Wonderful
Weird and Wonderful photos are unrealistic, this is why they're so eye catching. You can photograph anything and edit it into something out of this world. To come out with a striking image you have to be creative, this is the whole point you have to make it as weird and wonderful as possible.
Chema Madoz
Chema is an Spanish photographer. His work is in a particular style, it is very clear and straight. His work is always in black and white and with a amusing catch in every picture. He creates this qauntity of wonder, by blending two unrelated objects that share at least one visually similar feature, or by placing an object in visually out of the blue settings.
I like Chema's work because it is basic but unique he does not over do pictures. Unlike some photos Chemas photos are not packed with loads of objects, they are focused on one or two objects. His work is easy to figure out. I also like the black and white theme it makes his work more effective.

This photo is a picture of a tree trunk with a photo of a cloud edited on as its leafs. These two objects work well together, it looks like a picture of a tree with a cloud floating by. It is a creative photo as the cloud is a similar shape to the tree. The black and white hides the fact it is a cloud and not a green tree, also this picture shows the use of Photoshop.

Arthur Tress
I had chosen Arthur Tress because I found it very interesting, the dreams explored by tress are diverse, but common. Being buried alive, flying. The humiliation of failure in the classroom. Monsters looking in the bedroom window. Being lost or separated from everybody you know through a natural disaster.
Arthur Tress was born in 1940 and grew up in a strange time in the United States. In 1952, when he was twelve, his father gave him a Kodak camera. It was the first of many cameras he would own and use. Tress began to spend time at a local community center which had a darkroom and offered lessons in developing and printing.
Although he had partly supported himself during his travels by shooting documentary photographs, he hadn't considered photography as a serious career. The photographs he’d taken previously were primarily ethnographic, intended to show what life was like for the people in the various cultures he visited. On his return to the U.S., however, Tress began to consider the more aesthetic potential of photography. Rather than merely documenting the world he saw, Tress began to use photography as a form of interpretive expression.
