Dominique Bollinger

Dominique is a photographer of various things in life, however, I'm more drawn to her botanical photography. While she does focus primarily on botanical "structure", I guess I'd call it, I feel like flowers are one of the most beautiful things you can make art out of. Her levels of contrast and lighting make for bold, unique pieces, not unlike classic photographers, such as Karl Blossfeldt. Her work can be found here.

Alex Stoddard

I was drawn to this picture because it was just kind of different and funny, as opposed to a lot of other photography you see. Alex Stoddard works mostly with surrealism. While he does create some humorous pictures, his work ranges a lot, and conveys many different emotions and feelings. Some are beautiful and bright, some dark and serious or just plain sinister. Stoddard's work can be found on his Flickr page 'alexstoddard'.

Kyle Thompson

Photographer: Kyle J. Thompson

I was drawn to, not only this picture, but the photographer because he creates such intriguing images using tricks of photoshop as well as personal tricks while taking the picture. He dabbles mostly in surrealism, as shown in this picture. In fact, on his blog, the caption reads, "I actually lit my arms on fire  for this..."  This is not Mr. Thompson's only photo that involves lighting himself or other things on fire, but all are equally stunning. His other works can be found on his self-named Tumblr and Flickr pages.
