I am very much a Bizarre kind of girl, I love their articles and find their coverage of unique events a real inspiration, as reflected in my Trend Hunter portfolio. That said, I have stopped short of writing about the self amputees pictured in the gallery above.
Going a few steps further, Bizarre has now launched their own extreme photo agency, which will be a one-stop shop for the strangest images in the world. I have a feeling they will also be a great source of inspiration, so make sure you check it out online.
