South African photographer Anelia Loubser’s latest photo series challenges our perception of emotions. Instead of photographing people’s faces straight on, she only photographed the top of their heads. She then flipped the image and played with the composition. The results are very interesting.

Upside down faces are a little strange.

And very interesting.

They look a little like a strange science experiment

Doesn’t it make you wonder what your face would look like?

If your eyes were flipped upside down.

Or other parts of your face were jumbled around.


The eyes seem to stand out the most

It’s pretty amazing.

And very creative.

“This collection of portraits challenges the viewer by using creative tactics based on the concept, If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change,” said Loubser.
I think it’s about time to start taking upside-down photographs.
