Stunning. While I do adore the images, I must also admit I am slightly uncomfortable about [wild animals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xplra-10) being used in this way. Unfortunately, I don't speak Lureibetxeberria's language so I am not in a position to research or comment further. **Implications** - There is something that is once very unsettling yet exciting about the photography of Mike Luribetxeberria. If you have never seen any of his work, you are certainly in for a great treat.
