November 7th, 2015: Insect Flowers
 
Ever wonder what happened to that weird kid who used to rip the heads off action figures, and pull the wings off insects?
Action figures got too expensive, but he figured out how to make a living from the insects.

Photos of insect wings manipulated to look like blooming flowers by Paris-based fine art photographer Seb Janiak. This series entitled Mimesis, a Greek word meaning imitation, was created without any special effects or retouching using only techniques from analog photography, namely superimposition and photomontage.

Mimicry is a survival technique developed by animals during the course of their evolution and involves various morphological, physiological, ecological and ethological aspects. The term also covers all types of camouflage used by species to ensure concealment from predators and avoid being seen by humans.
