Actualy, this isn't a photo at all. It's a 3D rendering. I saw it awhile ago on this art site.. Look up 3D render and tentical monster on Google or something.
yea, i cant remember the name of the original artist, but im 99% sure hes french, and then another guy got permission to render it 3D. i think its a freekin amazing job hes done too, much better than the 2d original.
comment #15229 Yeah, the original artist is French, called "Prometheus-ANJ" or soemthing, can't quite remember... Whoever did this one did a great job but in my opinion missed a tiny detail which makes all the difference, see if you can spot it, here is the original: post #83202
