73 years old this year, and the eye as vivid as ever, there’s your portrait of American photographer Melvin SOKOLSKY .

Best known for his editorial fashion photographs for publications such as Harper's Bazaar , he produced, in 1963, the "Bubble" series of photographs depicting fashion models "floating" in giant clear plastic bubbles suspended in midair above the River Seine in Paris).

 

 

 

You call it imagination ?

 

Sokolsky's work is not limited to that field.
