Edward Hopper's art draws a lot of attention last month. Worth to mention Nastya's Ptichek "Emoji Nation" but today's Richard Tuschman’s series “Hopper Meditations” evokes the moody colour palettes, cityscape backdrops, and solitary female characters that are signature elements in Hopper’s paintings.
“I wanted to do a series of staged figurative narratives, somehow connected to past art, but also something I could take ownership of. The sets are all painted dollhouse size dioramas that I built and photographed in my studio. A lot of the furniture is standard dollhouse furniture, but some I made myself. I photographed the models against a plain backdrop, and then made the digital composites in Photoshop. This method gives me a great deal of control over every aspect of the process, and I can do it all in my small studio”

"Originally born in Havana, Cuba, photographer Abelardo Morell has embraced the classic technique of camera obscura, a method used photographically through the use of pinhole cameras. Morell finds rooms with windows that offer unique and spectacular views from the Eiffel Tower to the Italian countryside and then blocks out all the light from the windows with the exception of a pinhole which causes the narrow channel of light to project an exact upside down image of the scene outside on the opposite wall. Next, Morell sets up a large format camera facing the projection on the wall and creates a long exposure photograph revealing the juxtaposition of the actual room meshing with the landscape outside the window." via Juxtapoz
Ukrainian nature photographer Vyacheslav Mishchenko has created this macro photo series in which he has documented the snails in their natural environment
As the name suggests, this photography series showcases mouse traps baited with a cheesy dish fit for the pickiest mouse. In the series, mouse traps are outfitted with savoury and mouth-watering dishes rather than the standard cheese. The inspiration for Gourmet Mouse Traps came to Davide Luciano after a week-long cheese advertising shoot in NYC. Food stylist Claudia Ficca embraced the challenge of making miniature dishes.

Fashion photographer and editor-in-chief at Mirage Magazine Henrik Purienne has enough to say by uploading shots on Tumblr and Instagram
"Robert Jahns, better known as nois7, has casually been manipulating photos to create surreal, impossible situations for some time now. Featured throughout much of his work are cities – bold old and new – infused with extremes, from the frozen canals of Venice to skateboarding the skyline of New York City. While the idea itself is not necessarily new, the execution is very well done, leaving the viewer with a sense of awe." via Highsnobiety

Born in Taiwan and trapped in New York City photographer Sam Alive has a natural talent for capturing beautiful moments of his life that one can call routine. His personal online playgrounds like Flickr, Tumblr, Facebook and Instagram are full of awesome moments but personally we liked his latest series of mobile photography "Through the Phone" where he uses his iPhone to capture landscapes and scenes through a digital lens.
Firstly a young daydreamer and than the photographer - Taylor McCormick imagines in all her creative way.
"Facades is an ongoing series of work by French photographer Zacharie Gaudrillot-Roy that imagines a world where facades have been completely isolated from buildings. He shares of the project" writes Collosal
The façade is the first thing we see, it’s the surface of a building. It can be impressive, superficial or safe. Just like during a wandering through a foreign city, I walk through the streets with these questions: what will happen if we stick to that first vision? If the daily life of “The Other” was only a scenery? This series thus offers a vision of an unknown world that would only be a picture, without intimate space, with looks as the only refuge.
All I want now is a huge projector, darkness and new Yosemite II time-lapse movie to create the atmosphere of a peace on a planet, just peace for these 5 damned minutes.
