57 Creative and Clever Photographs by Sven Prim

thumbSven Prim is a photographer and photomanipulator who has some of the most creative manipulations you’ll find.  Awhile back, I wrote a post called 55 Epic, Weird and Totally Awesome Images, which featured a couple works from Sven.  However, he has a lot of awesome works, so in this post, we’ve collected 57 creative, clever and amusing photographs and photomanipulations from Sven.  Unfortunately, Sven’s website seems to have been decommissioned and there isn’t much information available about him.

Some of his works are advertisements, while others just seem to be for purely comedic value.  Regardless, I’m sure you’ll enjoy these images.

Thanks for reading, and have a great weekend!
