Photography: Dreams of Flying

If this doesn't signify cool, then I have no idea what does! Photographer Jan von Holleben has created a series of contrived pictures. His overall theme has been titled "Dreams of Flying" in which each of his images are taken on the ground, but looks as if the action is really taking place. For example, the image of the young kids riding the bicycles in the air is really achieved by having the bicycles lying on the floor. All of the subjects in this work as a whole, are children and it definitely says something about them always wanting to fly. Very youthful.

This theme is unlike any other I have seen before, and think it to be refreshing. I especially love the fact that it shows movement, hope and inspiration.
