Some of the most stunning pieces of art are the ones that look almost, but not quite, real. They make us stop and look again. And again.

Robert Jahns is a photographer whose work is surreal, but has a strange, dream-like quality. It would be impossible for most of his photos to exist in this plane of existence. However, there is an edge to each image, making us wonder…. “Could it be?”

The German art director’s Instagram account (Nois7) and Flickr are full of his incredible photos. After you take one look, you’ll feel like you’re floating through a dream.
