LMD NEW WORK: GORDON RIVER DAM

A couple of shots here I took of the Gordon River Dam in Tasmania. This is at the end of a long road deep in the Tasmanian wilderness. It was quite bizarre and even a little eerie to see this monstrous piece of infrastructure in such a wild and relatively untouched environment. I have the whole series on my behance profile here.

DORIAN GOURG: ADAHY

French artist/designer Dorian Gourg as put together some incredible illustrations. The use of geometric shapes with patterns gives these pieces a loof/feel that I've never seen before. The centre piece feels synthetic and devoid of life but is layered over landscape photography – giving some of the pieces a sublime feel. The complete absence of colour here works really well, emphasising the cold lifelessness of the illustration and perhaps even generating mystery/intrigue. Check the whole series here and Dorian's site here.

TATA VISLEVSKAYA: KLEINE SCHEIDEGG

I've seen some of Tata Vislevskaya's work before on behance, some amazing urban captures (which I thought I'd posted but haven't – will have to do something about that). Today I spotted these shots which are part of a larger series titled Kleine Scheidegg. From what I can tell these are shots where taken in Switzerland, and confirm my continuing fascination with mountains and the sublime. The macro shot of the grass with the nicely blurred background hit me with a sense of nostalgia like it was taken from a carefree childhood memory of lying in the grass staring at the clouds on a warm spring day. I have no doubt that I'll be posting more of Tata's working in the future. Check out her amazing folio here.

BEC BROWN: SILENT LANDSCAPES (ICELAND)

After another crazy-busy week I've unfortunately only been able to post today. I'm looking forward to posting more frequently in the near future. Thanks to everyone who's been dropping by anyway.

I'm really starting to realise that I've got to get over to Iceland at some point in the near future. I think over the past month or so I've already posted some amazing pics taken of Icelandic landscapes but I had to add this pic by Bec Brown to the mix. This pic is part of a series titled Silent Landscapes. I think the title is very appropriate, and I can see the concept behind the title being applied to other Iceland photography I've seen. Typically what I've seen (including this piece) feels quite isolating and sublime, but always quite beautiful. I love how Bec has taken advantage of the heavy mist, contrasting it with the vibrant green field and the abrupt streak of reflected sunlight. A wonderfully atmospheric shot! Check out the whole series here and some of Bec's other projects here.
