Photo shoots often contain scantly clad women, however they don't really take the time to show a genuine appreciation for the human body. There's an emphasis on sex, but the true visual beauty of our external beings is often missed. Photographer Carl Warnerpresents a series that does just that, and we promise you'll never look at body parts the same.

Quite simply, his series "Bodyscapes" contains images of body parts as landscapes. You see the muscles and contours of body parts, but he has manipulated human skin and made it look like hilly terrain. You can easily forget what you're really looking at as you get lost in the valleys and ridges of arms, legs, and torsos.

On Behance, he describes his project as "an alternative portrait of a human being whose body becomes a landscape of themselves and plays on the sense of space in which we dwell. The external view of ourselves therefore becomes a more abstract and perhaps more intimate reflection of our inner being when viewed as a landscape or given a sense of place."
