20 unbelievable photo manipulations between reality and imagination

Share this post on FB:

Erik Johansson is a young Swedish photographer and Photoshop artist based in Berlin and today we want to show you a selection of our favorite pieces in his portfolio.

His photos are more than mere pictures, they are a blending of reality and fantasy and in order to accomplish these kind of results you need much more that a good “eye” for photography. Erik’s imagination is surprising, and his Photoshop skills are at a master level (under the picture number 2 you can see a behind the scene of the process).

The most amazing thing about his work is that he never studied photography or digital retouch, as he learned Photoshop just for fun while studying engineering in university.

You can admire more of his work here on his official website.
