There's Photoshop and then there's Alternate Reality. Erik Johannson is a master of the latter category. Four samples here. More of his work can be seen at his site: alltelleringet.com

That's from Daniil Harms!

Neschastnaya koshka porezala lapky -
Stoit i ni shagu ne moget stupit'.
Skorey, choby vylechit' koshkinu lapku,
Vozdushnye shariki nuzhno kupit'.
I srazu stolpilsia narod u dorogy -
Shumit i krichit i na koshku gliadit.
A koshka otchasti id'ot po doroge,
Otchasti po vozdukhu plavno letit.

Woe to the cat, as she cut her paw
She can't walk at all, not a single step.
Quickly, to cure the poor paw,
A bunch of balloons we need.

And now a crowd stands by the road
The people are cheering and look at the cat.
The cat is half walking along on the road,
Half flying on air as smooth as can be.
