Kyle Thompson Self Portrait Photos Are Awesome

A couple of years ago, Kyle Thompson became interested in photography. Unfortunately, his anxiety prevented him from talking to people, so he opted to experiment with self-portraits. He would spend hours, even days, walking alone through forests and exploring abandoned houses. He's been to over 50 of them. After taking hundreds of photos, he posted some of his best to Reddit. From there, his life changed forever. During college, Kyle was interested in photography but had no idea what to do with his life. He didn't think he could survive as an artist. This photo was taken with the use of flour. He climbed to the top of a mountain in Bolivia for this one. After finding a broken plane in an old corn field, Kyle used smoke bombs to capture this fantastic shot. His work is incredibly unique. Yes, more flour. After posting some of his work to Reddit, it got over 4 million views. He said he was even recognized in public. Those are not headlights.
