These surreal captures are the latest editions to the Internet craze of levitation photography. Taken by Jeff Cheong and Jayden Tan, who work at an advertising agency in Singapore, these images are all created without the use of any photo-editing software.
The stunning results feature a young man floating whilst playing piano, a couple levitating towards the camera in a car-park, and people being carried into the air by umbrellas and balloons.
Jeff and Jayden were inspired to create their own series of levitation photographs after becoming inspired by Natsumi Hayashi's levitating self-portraits in Tokoyo. The pair decided to explore this realm of art in everyday places around Singapore.
This levitating photo collection brings some magic into the everyday world, making tasks like grocery shopping seem incredible.
