Henrik Garnell's Photos Combine Natural Objects with Modern Gadgets

Henrick Isaksson Garnell photography does exactly what an artist wants viewers to do -- it makes you look at everyday and familiar objects in totally new ways. His take on nature photography combines natural objects such as jellyfish, eggplants, and a squid with technology-like resistors and electrodes.

The photography is very simple, yet provides an incredible take on the idea of evolution and impact of technology. My personal favorite is the jellyfish. What's yours?
