Albert Dros’ New Aerial Photos of Iceland Looks Like a Series of Paintings

Dutch landscape photographer Albert Dros took to the skies of Iceland to catch some incredible aerial pictures. The result is an exhibition ‘Paintings in the Sky’ is a rich mixture of abstract landscape photography which shows off the bewitching color and light from the Icelandic environment.

With the support of Haraldur Diego, Dros managed to devote a substantial quantity of time in the atmosphere. The pace was a significant change for Dros, who is accustomed to carrying his time when composing a”regular” picture photograph. With this exhibition, he let his instincts take charge, put down his tripod, and allowed the attractiveness of the environment to guide his choices.

It had been Iceland‘s volcanic landscape that prompted Dros’ visit, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. Glacial rivers and streams form colorful ribbons which appear like ink wash paintings, while sun-soaked valleys radiate warmth. By playing with the different textures which the environment offers, Dros introduces a vast array of vision into this particular artistic series.

Even though Dros makes aerial landscape photography appear straightforward, there is a lot of time and thought which goes into the job, both during and after the shoot. How does he work to ensure his aerial photos stand out in the crowd? “Color schemes greatly vary if you fly across the landscapes of Iceland,” Dros informs My Modern Met. “The secret is to filter out the good components and capture them. The key things are color and makeup. You truly must have an eye for this, as aerial photography is remarkably difficult. I also attempt to produce the color schemes match during post-production. By changing colors and colors a tiny bit, they are more pleasing to the eye. As we are speaking about abstract graphics anyway, I don’t have any problems by changing the colors. They’re, after all, a work of art.”

Landscape Embroidery Motifs by Vera Shimunia

Russian embroidery artist Vera Shimunia started her landscape embroidery hobby in 2015. She told Colossal that it is the best medium for her because it requires less patience than cross-stitch and is more exciting, in her view, than painting. The Saint Petersburg-based self-taught artist shares that she guesses that the needle for a brush. Her richly-hued mountainscapes, sunrises, and skies have been crafted on palm-sized embroidery hoops using an assortment of textured threads. Although Shimunia uses a unified color palette on a small surface area, she distinguishes distinct landscape components employing different sew and knot styles, in addition to thick, thin, and three-dimensional fibers. You can view more of her embroideries on Instagram, and buy work on Etsy.

Rusty Restroom in Norway’s Lofoten Archipelago by Manthey Kula

On Moskenesøyaan island in the southern end of Norway‘s Lofoten archipelago, Oslo-based studio Manthey Kula has finished a roadside rest stop with rust-red outside sits strikingly contrary to the landscape.

At particular times of year, the wild but gorgeous landscape of Moskenesøya is buffeted by intense winds. The’Akkarvikodden’ rest stop was developed to replace an old bathroom facility which was lifted from its foundation during such gale. When designing the replacement, Manthey Kula’s primary objective was to create a construction robust enough to withstand these punishing winds. The architects decided to do that by counteracting such pressure with bodily weight. Crafted from sheets of corten steel–a material made to create a rust-like look from exposure to weather the construction itself is easy and small. Welded together on a place, the excellent assembly includes two large glass openings that offer a perspective to the skies and reflect the horizon. The architects chose to not create opinions of the surrounding landscape a characteristic of the construction. On an aesthetic level, their goal was much more conceptual. “The adventure of this area, sea, and mountains, along with also the craggy coastal climate is quite extreme,” Kula mentioned in a statement concerning the job. “The restrooms were supposed to present a pause in the beliefs of the surrounding character, offering an adventure of distinct sensuous qualities.”

Abstract Steel Wire Sculptures by David Moreno

New sculptures by Barcelona-based artist David Moreno that sees fanciful buildings in the form of thin metal wires welded together with a silver wire as human relationships–the bonds that we build, the relations, the streams of energy, the love or the power between individuals. Moreno continues to explore these fanciful spaces by experimenting with color and giving his sculptures another dimension.

Iconic Movie Kitchens Recreated As Incredibly Detailed 3D Models

If there’s one thing for certain in the movies, it’s that the people in them will have nicer homes than you. Those homes might turn out to be haunted by malevolent spirits, or the inhabitants may find themselves fighting off alien invaders, but the furnishings and decor really can’t be faulted.

It helps that they had a Hollywood movie budget to help put them together, which can’t be said for your own kitchen, of course. However, as long as it’s not got zero-gravity microwaves or dishwashers that are actually dinosaurs, it’s not that difficult to take some inspiration from your favorite movie kitchen and bring it out into real life.

For example, you might assume that kitchens from Star Wars would be completely unattainable, but go back to the days before CGI and big budgets and you’ll find the simple, understated home of Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. Moisture farmers on Tatooine, they didn’t have the need for a big kitchen even with nephew Luke living with them. Unfortunately, like its owners, the kitchen ended up rather damaged by fire after a visit from Stormtroopers.

If you’re looking for some more relaxing inspiration, why not go for the Parisien ambiance of the kitchen belonging to Amelie Poulain? While her flat itself is as whimsical and quirky as she is, her kitchen is actually quite practical, with not much in the way of clutter or decoration. However, the soft reds and yellows still give it a homely feel, making it work as a shelter for a sensitive soul away from the outside world.

From Holly Golightly’s kitchen (Breakfast At Tiffany’s) to the very clean and organized hub of Charlotte York’s home (Sex And The City 2) these amazing rooms have been brought to life in spectacular fashion here, so which can you see yourself living in?

A Photographer Gerrard Gethings Show Resemblances Between Dogs and Owners in New Project

Gerrard Gethings has captured a lot of portraits as an animal photographer, including his very own dog Baxter. So when he began shooting his most recent show that paired people and look-alike dog strains, it might only make sense he would focus on finding the perfect animal models before locating matching humans. For the project Do You Look Like Your Dog? Gethings spent annually creating images that analyze the traditional trope of owners looking just like their canine buddies. The new game presents 25 matches, including a long-haired Afghan and equally silky-haired owner, a messy-haired child and his scruffy pup, and Schnauzer using a matching beard to his leather jacket-clad owner. Now you can buy the photos through Laurence King, and check out more of Gethings’s work on Instagram.
