Thanks to booooooom for the link to the works of photographer Todd Hido. (Hey, I ALWAYS credit anything I post that I found on another’s blog.)

Who thought it possible to turn something as pedestrian as suburban houses into something otherworldly, and downright creepy? Hido blows away the familiar and replaces it with a more sinister version. There is a desolate, abandoned quality to all of his photos. To me, they evoke the feel of a Don DeLillo novel.

Be sure to check out the full size versions at the artist’s site, along with his other equally thought provoking series.
