These night photography shots by Justin Carrasquillo are absolutely amazing. Each one captures the wonder and beauty of nature. I especially love the colors in the sky and the abundance of stars illuminating the night.
This is an amazing set of photos by Aleksey Marina for the Omega-Print publishing house promo-calendar 2010. Each image brings you to a strange, beautiful, and elegant place.
This is a wonderful series of black and white photos of the Taj Mahal by Thamer Al-Tassan. I love how all the photos were taken from a different perspective which gives you a much deeper and in depth look at the the surroundings of the world renowned building.
This is a pretty cool photo collage turned into one image by sparktography on Flickr. To create this image, he blended parts of seven different photos from his overpass series. Here is how he explains the image creation:
"The result of a few hours in Photoshop tonight playing with a number of different shots I took from my overpass series. I focused on trying to blend and remix them into something entirely new. At this point it's much more of a creation than a photograph.
Some shots taken with a 28-135mm IS lens, and some taken with a Lensbaby 3G. This is actually the result of 7 separate photos with multiple parts per photo taken and remixed together in new ways. I'm coming to love grungy brushes for work like this - so much control and being able to keep various layers of grunge for an image and tweak and blend it into the final image is very rewarding.
I find it really interesting that a photo shoot spanning a week and involving 4 separate treks to the overpass could culminate in a single image like this."
Lauren Peralta has a wonderful set of self portraits throughout her Flickr account. She just has a way of beautifully capturing herself on camera. I highly recommend viewing her most viewed and most interesting photographs or just wandering through her photo stream. Below are just some of the photos she tagged as self portraits.
Navid Baraty has a knack for shooting black and white photos in the rain. He has a way of capturing the solitude and solemness of being under an umbrella in the rain, even if there are others around.
This is one of the cooler light art photos I've seen recently. I like the concept of incorporating the light art with the subject of the photo. The coloring also turned out well. The subject has a dark, mysterious look while being surrounded by the batman insignia light art.
This is probably one of the coolest time lapse videos I've ever seen. It was created by Sean Stiegemeier and is a must watch in full screen HD.
