Brazilian photographer David Copithorne created some amazing images by mixing film, digital manipulation and geometry. The results are really cool. It feels like looking through another dimension.
The photographer states: “My motivation and dedication is to capturing the amazing scenarios that are missed by the average eye. I seek natural scenarios that you can’t find in a studio and attempt to visually adapt the vast crooks and corners of the world into my own creative output. To me, that’s where amazing photographs are born – that split second can change your life and ready or not you can change the world with a single digital image.”
French artist Cal Redback takes dramatic, surreal photographs that explore the relationship between people and nature. Check out some photographs below and view more at his website.
LA-based photographer Davis Ayer is more of a visual artist than just a photographer. He uses his camera as an instrument and paintbrush, mastering the art of double exposure with an unbending attraction toward what is beautiful.
Shooting mostly on a Mamiya RZ, Ayer’s work features a dreamy host of colors and moods. Light leaks, double exposures, solar flare, and other manipulations make the colors in his film bleed so majestically and form the spine of his work. You can see more of his amazing photography on his Flickr and Tumblr or purchase printshere.
