Karlstad, Sweden’s Benjamin Goss uses mostly medium- and large-format (8×10!!) cameras to make these amazing photos.
Every Photoshop grunge/worn/vintage filter/brush/action I’ve ever used, he’s doing it in real life, with a physical photograph, and the results speak for themselves. Photos like these are why those Photoshop effects exist in the first place. Gorgeous work.

Buy a freaking view camera and do this for real! Just say no to fake PS actions and filters. Just say no to fake alt process frames and fake tilt-shift effects. Your only cheating your viewer and depriving yourself of an actual photographic experience. Do it – Don’t fake it!

Interesting works.
They are spontaneous even though there is a research behind some of them.
Totally agree with Scott, you are only cheating yourself!
