We have heard and seen Creative Photography, Concept Photography but never seen Coincidence Photography like this.
This looks like sheer coincidence, they all look real, I bet you would agree to that.
New Update: There is so much going one here, we decided to dedicated one more Page to Coincidence Photography. Have fun browsing Coincidence Photography Reloaded
Update: This Page was a hot property on the www a few weeks back. Thanks folks for making it hot and many thanks to those who keep revisiting. We have also seen many variants of this page on plenty of web sites So we thought why not to keep adding to the list. The last image is a recent addition.
Also, we have had many comments most of them suggesting all or most pictures are shopped. Well, let’s not get into the pixel details but here is comment posted (on the comment section) by Bruno
“the first one is mine, it’s real but it sure wasn’t planned - well, except if you count getting a step-ladder to be in the right position, once I realized what was about to happen, as planning…
here’s the original: http://www.flickr.com/photos/beegee74/165007282/”
Enjoy folks, we will keep adding more
the bunny one is a photoshop (check the worth 1000 mark) but the rest are pretty awesome
Worth1000 = photoshop’d
some seem photoshopped
Number 1 wasn’t an accident but is a real photo.
Number 2 is a fake. By international treaty stamps always have a country’s name and either the denomination or a code indicating a fixed value (such as the letter series of US stamps over a few decades).
Number 3 I can’t say for sure.
Number 4 is an ad with a viral to promote the ad promoting the radio station. Number four is a fake;
Number 5 is a fake. Worth1000-dot-comm is a photoshopper’s site.
Number 6 looks posed though the guy in uniform probably wasn’t aware of it.
Number 7 may or may not be staged.
I would venture to say that some of these photographs are photoshopped.
World trade center stamp lacks Country name and value of stamp. May be a photoshop
.
wow… snaps are amazing…
heh heh, the microphone-eye man is a radical right winger politician in hungary. name is István Csurka.
@ Kurt, If you look along the edge of the stamp and the plane-stamp, both are very pixelated indicating most likely you’re correct.
I love this kind of photography! My favorite photographer is Matt Stuart: http://mattstuart.com/
I AM GAY
This happens all the time. When you’re studying photojournalism, they teach you to look at the background. Otherwise that pretty fountain behind you will look like it’s coming out of the top of your head.
I MEAN REALLY GAY!!
LOL, the microphones in the eyes is classical! Nice pics!
So i hear that CORY DOCTOROW is gay
I mean, REALLY gay
All of em are shit. Stop submitting crap pl0x, kthxbai.
the rabbit one is good
i think this is a sub-cat for creative photography …
unless the photographers “discovered” the “coincidences” after they took the pics …
highly unlikely … hehe …
These may be or may not be real…But these are pretty awesome
I would venture to say that some of these people need a life. Who cares if it’s a photoshop of not?
hey, the stamp is only pixelated because its been zoomed in…
otherwise v. good photos
and yes rabbit is photoshopped
Hahahah, that’s classic
Who cares if it’s fake? Shut up already!
Check out these from Matt Stuart

All these negative “p’shop’d! p’shop’d!” posters need to go out a learn a few skills, and spend less time spouting (and not actually doing or making anything). Photoshopped or not, This was a great 5 minute diversion. (Digged).
…or Dugg, whatever.
the first one is mine, it’s real but it sure wasn’t planned - well, except if you count getting a step-ladder to be in the right position, once I realized what was about to happen, as planning…

I think the gay Cory Doctorow is a photoshop
These are great but the bus stop ad don’t count.
The guy with the two microphones……lol!!!!
lol why is everyone so critical, they are still cool!
We can make up anything we want and hence some of these are the same making up stuffs.
I love the moon / crane image… GREAT - hope its not photoshop
Look shopped. I can tell from some of the pixels and all the shops I’ve seen
these are pretty cool. love this stuff.
ahahhahaha it’s realy funny … it like here http://runningthebeauty.com.ua/?cat=94
Is there anyone these days who doesn’t use ‘Shop or similar to edit/enhance pics? No? Then FFS stop commenting “Photoshopped” all over the place! Hans Moleman is right! And for the dickbrain who finished up with kthxbai - this isn’t a LOLCATS site, speak English you tosser!
As for the pics - good stuff, a picture should be a piece of art, and these do tell their own story. I don’t care if they’ve been tweaked a bit.
All of them are photoshop work….
the first one was obviously intentional, the advertisement was createed for that purpose, the bunny one is photoshopped, and the rest are boring. thumbs down on stumble so i dont come across this retarded post again. waste of time.
3 is definitely shopped, on a stamp the plane wouldnt have a white b/g
Thank you
Haha! awesome !!
Great article! I love photography and reading this sure makes me want to be more aware of these situations - I wish I could snap one!
