If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? And do you think that someone could wager an accurate guess, just by looking at your photo? Dreamland, a series of diptychs by Italian photographer Francesca Guadagnini which we spotted thanks to PetaPixel, pairs portraits of her friends with images of the places that they’d love to inhabit. Their choices range from predictable locations for young, creative types — cities like Sydney, Amsterdam, and Berlin — to far less obvious options — like in a video game. As for Guadagnini herself: “If I had been asked, I answered where my friends are.” Aw. Click through to meet them all now!
