strange and beautiful

Carsten Witte's series of photographs delicately painted with fine anatomical images of skulls entitled, "Intuition". The Hamburg based photographers series depicts the fleeting nature of beauty and how photography only really preserves a moment.

“One main idea behind my work is the belief that everything is constantly changing but photography can preserve the moment. Beauty is almost nothing without the knowledge of how fast it will fade...” (via behance)

It's a bit of a departure from the happy go lucky illustrations I posted yesterday, but I keep coming back to these pictures because I find something really strange a beautiful about them.

That and I've been watching too much The Walking Dead and Supernatural.
