We’ve already told you that you shouldn’t trust the pictures posted on social media (check out that post here) and we’re back to remind you that nothing has changed. The photographers are still manipulating angles to make puddles look like lakes, and still use photoshop to make it seem like you’re swinging on a swing made of flowers.

This glamorous illusion was once again shattered by Gilmar Silva, a Brazilian wedding and family photographer, who created the project LUGARxPHOTO (‘place and photo’), in which he compares the behind the scenes pictures with the end result by putting them side by side. And, as it turns out, it proved to be quite an amusing juxtaposition.

Check out the pictures below to find out how the photography magic happens.

Ukrainian artist Sergey Melnitchenko moved to Hong Kong in 2015, where he started off as a model and a dancer. But soon this line of work lead him to a job in one of the city’s nightclubs, which not only turned him into a photographer but also showed him the world he didn’t know exists.

“Transvestites, girls bathing in tubs of beer, drunk actors and even more drunk visitors. All of this [is the] club, the club where I’m working,” that’s the introduction Sergey gives to his photo series ‘Behind The Scenes,’ which he made during a four-month employment in an unnamed Chinese underground club.

“[It] is more like a huge bar with a stage, because no one of the visitors is dancing here,” explains Sergey, who’s photo series is all about “the invisible side of the club, the atmosphere,” and the look into the backstage, where “there is more burlesque than on the stage.” He continues to add: “The concentration of sexual fluids is more powerful than oxygen. There’s no falsehood – it’s not a scene, it’s their everyday life, our life, or rather mine.”

Japanese photographer Ken Ohki who goes by the name Yukison was traveling in Toyama Prefecture, Japan, when he stumbled upon one of the creepiest arrays of human-like sculptures scattered around the village of Fureai Sekibutsu no Sato (The Village Where You Can Meet Buddhist Statues).

“I felt like I’d accidentally stumbled into some forbidden area. Amazing,” writes Ken on his Twitter account.

What he actually stumbled upon was a park with over 800 different stone statues carved in the likeness of Buddhist deities and people close to the park’s founder Mutsuo Furukawa. His idea was to make this park a popular tourist destination, where people would come to relax. Nice idea, sure. But as the time passed the statues lost that relaxation quality about them and now gives an even more creepy vibe.

Just imagine yourself making the same discovery alone. At night. With no help in sight. Yeah… Relaxing.
