I like this picture because whilst it is clearly an unrealistic and surreal picture; the way the picture has been put together so carefully, and the way it has been edited, the elephant really looks like it belongs in the picture; it doesn't look unrealistic, it is just the concept that is unrealistic.
This one is very ethereal and fantasy based, it is a manipulated landscape. I like the colours used, this creates quite a magical atmosphere as they are colours we don't usually see in the sky. The dark tones build a mysterious connotation. This sort of picture reminds me heavily of fantasy and sci-fi movies.
This one shows a road with someone swimming who has been edited into the puddle. I think this is quite a clever idea and concept that the photographer has managed to bring to life in a good way. It looks very surreal as we know how unrealistic this is. I like how this picture shows direction and depth through the yellow line and the road, it gives a path to follow.
This picture shows a man who appears to be ripping open his skin and thus revealing a superman costume. This is clever because of how it shows the reverse and opposite to how hero's costume traditionally work. Because of how superhero's normally rip open their costume to show the skin underneath, the man beneath the hero, however this shows a different message, like underneath the man, there is a superhero, it is who he is, his identity. I really like how he is looking straight into the camera, this makes it seem very powerful, he appears to have a lot of strength and confidence.
