I hope you find this 'Agemaps' collection of “photo surgery” images as fascinating as I do. Bobby Neal Adams is the genius who loves to look at the transformation of the human face as it ages. Through a technique of photo stitching, Bobby Neal Adams has devised what he calls agemaps. With agemapping, Bobby Neal Adams takes a photograph of the subject as a child and stitches it with the photograph of the child as an adult. His technique also explores the “family tree” concept, mixing up close relatives, and “couples,” which uses photos of two lovers to make one image.
