Earlier today, a Photographer/Digital Artist used his talent and brought dead celebrities to life, the pictures he created looked so real and made one think what a glorious life they would have had if they were alive today.
The tweet shared by Al Bawaba News showed how he pulled off the old look of the celebrities who passed away at a young age.
The renowned celebrities include: Diana, Heath Ledger, Salena, Freddie Mercury, Amy Winehouse, Paul Walker, Tupac Shakur, and Elvis Presley.
Take a look at the pictures and see how they would have looked in this era:
I’ve been imagining scenes and capturing memories for about 19 years now. During that time, some of my photos have been edited worldwide in books, magazines, exhibitions, and websites and were awarded in several photo contests.
I would like to share with you the first collection of images of my AI-based project called “As if nothing happened”. Behind this project lies the question of “how would people look photo-realistically if some great events had not happened to them”. I look forward to your feedback and suggestions.
