*When I think about you...
As Woody Allen famously quipped: "Don't knock masturbation; it's sex with someone I love." I don't know if that thought was in the mind of French art duo Pupsam when they created their exhibition SelfKiss, but it's applicable.
Using photo manipulation the artists created images of individuals passionately embracing themselves, and the results are remarkable, capturing a wide range of emotions and responses. There is ample humor, as well, and each picture tells several stories.
Disclaimers: Those of you surfing from work should know that a few have some mild nudity. Also, if homosexuality freaks you out, you probably don't want to click the link. (I mean, think it through — if you were kissing yourself, how would it look to an outside observer?) Lastly, the text of the site is in French. Between the nudity, implicit homosexual imagery, and français, conservatives are advised to exercise caution.

Arrggggh, my eyes! Kidding. Fascinating picture. Also, I subsribe to a decent language translation service. And I did the text w/the photo. Interesting piece of art...and text. Two words in the text summed the image up for me: technical mastery.
I know their site navigation isn't the best, but you did notice there is more than one photo, right, James?
