Adam Voorhes is an Austin, Texas-based photographer with an outstanding portfolio. One gem is his series, Exploded, which takes four objects–a telephone, frog, gun and an etch-a-sketch–and dissects them for the purpose of a unique photo expose. Check out an interview with him here. The rest of the series can be found below.
