Photo Manipulator Transforms Celebrities into Bobblehead Dolls

Bobblehead dolls, also known as bobbing head dolls are sort of a novelty toy. They have unusually disproportionate heads, being much larger and oversized for the body. A spring attaches the body to the head, usually in the neck portion of the doll, causing the slightest disturbance of the figure to bob the head back and forth or side to side. Bobblehead dolls are usually placed on car dashboards or in the rear deck, where their heads bobble constantly as the vehicle is in motion.  They are extremely popular with marketing campaigns and have been used extensively for various brands, personalities, and events.

Photo enthusiast samuelorsaumell used the Bobblehead doll as inspiration for his digitally manipulated images of famous celebrities. The series is quite simply called Celebrity Photoshop Bobbleheads, and it features some of today’s most popular stars from both television and the big screen.

Harm Less: Photos of Firearms Made Out of Plants

gun made out of plants

Just when you think you’ve seen the whimsical, you are again surprised to see something even more fanciful. Artist Sonia Rentsch creatively takes twigs, branches, leaves, flowers and even some fruit and creates with them, automatic pistols, revolvers, high caliber bullets, and even a hand grenade. Obviously, these ingeniously created pieces are merely replications of actual firearms, and needless to say, are absolutely harmless. From a distance however, the images look deceptively real. Quite wittingly, she calls the harmless series Harm Less.  Rentsch created the project for the January Biannual, a publication committed to “beauty, intelligence and timelessness.” Photographer Albert Comper was in charge of taking the shots of each of “weapon.”

Flickr Users Can Now Enjoy 1TB of Storage Space for Free + New Design

flickr home page new features
