Most of those pictures look like paintings...
20 People Who Wanted to Take an Ordinary Photo but Got a Real Masterpiece Instead
While some people spend months studying the peculiarities of working with chiaroscuro, learning the art of composition, and understanding the way cameras work, others just take a random picture and immediately get a masterpiece that looks like a painting. These lucky ones sometimes manage to turn even an ordinary mess on the table into a work of art.
Bright Side is ready to admit that, although photography is unlikely to ever replace painting, some of these pictures look like they belong on the wall of an art gallery.
