I don't even feel like I can explain this image with any form of words, it's just perfect. And encapsulates the feeling of anxiety so well. This is an image by Beethy Photography who is primarily a Cosplay photographer, but felt the need to express his feelings through the creative process. Here is a quote from his online journal on the piece 'anxiety'
"At any random point in the day I can get these attacks. During these attacks I'm overwhelmed with the feeling of imminent death. No rational thinking can erase the thought or feeling. Imagine having a gun held to your head. And you know it's going to go off. You just don't know when. That's what happens when I experience an attack."
He mentions with the piece he found Eric Johansson's TED talk on composition very useful when crafting this image. To create something that doesn't exist. Erik talks about 3 simple rules to achieve a realistic result:
1. Photos combines should have the same perspective
2. Photos combined should have the same type of light
3. Making the image seamless, so it's impossible to distinguish where the different images begin and end.
