Mr Wouter Van Buuren, a Dutch photographer, has spent seven years creating his stunning collection of images - with each individual portrait taking between two months and two years to complete.He scales 70m-high electricity pylons, cranes, bridges and even skyscrapers in a bid to take the vertigo-inducing snaps.He then spends months arranging the photographs to make up one huge landscape - giving the effect of looking down on the whole world.

Mr Van Buuren said: 'I started to make the "total landscapes" in the Netherlands when I was climbing in electricity pylons. I was stunned by the beauty of the landscape I thought I knew so well.When I looked at the landscape from above, the mundane seemed more divine, so I decided to look around for what else I could take images from - and started climbing cranes, bridges and buildings and other countries all over the world'.

Andrey Pavlov, a Russian photographer with commendable theatrical background chose a unique way of story telling combining both the media. He devotedly studied the lives of ants, and planted histrionic props on their trails. There he photographed them live as if in a drama or movie. Except for the planned stage settings, all the rest is natural; no photo editing gimmicks involved, vouches the photographer. Come see the great moments of simple joviality, grant imagination, poignancy, and even some sublime philosophising.

It all started with a spinal injury which left him bedridden for a bout during which he happened to read a lot on ants, and observed them. Known for their hardworking nature, the ants stunned Pavlov with the way they care for the weaker members of their community. '..I chose ants because I respect them and their way of life. They care about their children and look after the elderly'.

Photographer and art director Eric Maloberti also known as Malo, 39, imagines what the future may hold for his three-month-old daughter June when she grows up. In his project Un Jour, Mon Enfant Tu Seras (One Day, My Child, You Will Be...) he dresses June up as a boxer, a priest and a butcher, plus many other professions.

"The idea behind the project is that we do not know what our children will become," said Malo. "One day my oldest son came up to me and said that he wants to be an explorer. My eldest daughter then told me she was going to become an artist. This made me think about what the future really did hold for them."

Eric, makes intricate costumes for June with the help of his wife, and photographs June against a plain mattress. "We did the pictures very quickly so she would not get tired," said Malo.

Photographer Matteo Zanvettor looks like he's on top of the world as he composes his shots in the Italian Alps thanks to a combination of clever perspective and rare weather conditions.The 41-year-old photographer had to battle against 100kmph winds and driving snow to get landscape shots.

Matteo ended up being the subject of some of the best pictures taken by his friend Edoardo Brotto, as frozen snow whipped up around him gave the illusion he was standing on clouds in the Alps.

He said: 'I've never been on top of a mountain with such strong winds - I was worried we might have to turn back but we decided to carry on.We got to Lagazuoi, which is part of the Ampezzo Dolomites in the Italian Alps'.

Li Wei’s photographs are Quirky, gravity-defying, astonishing, unbelievable. Here is an unusual collection of self portraits in all unlikely postures and places. Rare artistic production that combines stunt, photography and acrobatics.

Li Wei states that these images are not computer montages and that he works with the help of props such as mirrors, metal wires, scaffolding and acrobatics. He then removes the wires and scaffolding with Photoshop to create these seemingly impossible photos.

Li is candid about the risk involved: “Sometimes I am in real danger - I have to hang myself high with steel wires and people do get a little worried for me - but I am fine.” “I am fascinated by the unstable and dangerous sides of art…”
