When you release the kraken on the table... you never know what might happen! Cosimo Barletta specializes in food, beverage and packaging photography, along with his partner the food stylist, Mayda.
"Lighting Clothes II" is the second part from a personal portrait series where consumer objects we usually want like fancy clothing or pricey jewellery, are replaced by simple laser light lines. This is an attempt to create a metaphor of the conventional elements of the fashion world, as well as an image about the elegance itself with no material and needless elements.
Syrian-born photographer Rami Yazagi dabbles not only in product photography, but black and white, portrait, nature and architecture as well. His aim with the Splashes photo series was to create something outside of usual.

Jack Dziamba created these cubist photos inspired by Georges Braque, a 20th century French painter and collagist giant.
The vision of the photographer was to keep the design simple yet unique and deeply orientated towards the brand and product on show.
The concept for this series of images was to use food ingredients that we associate with luxury and style. They often have high prices and we see them a lot in trendy establishments. The images are captured in a very stylized way with a twist of mystery surrounding them.
As I See Me by Mike Sung Photography
As I See Me is a conversation between two Taiwanese artists with different life experiences and nationalities about their culture, mirroring questions about identity and belonging from across an ocean. The series is a tribute to Taiwanese identity, both new and old, with new silhouettes married with traditional patterns from throughout Taiwan’s history.
This series of pictures were taken during the photographer's project Deep inside the glacier ice cave. The series is the result of his 5th visit to the Vátnajokull and Myrdalsjokull glacier, during which in last few years he witnessed and documented the rapid melting and changing of the glacier front.
The main aim of this series was to show the real Malibu and California living lifestyle, with a spark from De Angelico Guitars, who were the sponsors of the festival.
