Bear Kirkpatrick

Stunning work by American photographer Bear Kirkpatrick. His figures appear in mysterious and unsettling nighttime environments and the viewer feels as though they've accidentally exposed some arcane and deeply private moment in the fleeting beams of their car's headlights.

Really, really wonderful stuff.
