But everywhere i look or research i can only find examples of macro stuff :( or dolls. Has anyone got any artists or your own work?

Im going for dreams, exploring human mind, nightmares sort of direction, so kind of dark fatastical? Thanks alot!

    Are you looking for info elabaorately staged shots, lighting, possibly with props, etc? Or something more in heavy post production work, collage or multi-layered images?

    Do you know of Jerry Uelsmann?

    For your macro work I would strongly suggest developing DOF focusing techniques and getting ZereneStacker.

    Let us know what you come up with in your research, please.

    im looking for heavily staged stuff, i prefer more literal, rather than post production.

    Show us an example.

    You could stage with a Uelsmann photo as starting point. Or any other photo with an idea that you like. I guess you don't want pret a porter?

    Have you looked on deviantART?
