Clever Finger Portraits by Juliana Coutinho

Brazilian photographer Juliana Coutinho has produced a lot of beautiful photos, but her series ‘Little Fingers‘ is especially clever.

In this way, she’s able to show all kinds of famous scenes and archetypes, as if being a finger was how portraits were meant to be done.
