“I started digital photography in 2005, which eventually changed my perception about the world. I have been tirelessly exploring the scenes of nature near and far, and trying to capture those magical moments and transform them into eternal art.”
“It is not as much photography as it is about sculpture and installation. The long oneman work on an largescale installation is a process triggering the artistic genom. This process involves the object, story, space and most important the time it is made within. It is an approach to the balance between nature and human culture, and all the sublevels of our own excistence. The work is made solely on site, and the photographs represents the reality of the installation itself.”

In Alaska, a well-rounded project by Pat Perry. Perry took residency at the Katmai National Park to create these pieces, while working with the National Park Series.
“Not a land for the time or unprepared, Katmai beckons to those who find rewards in the mountains, forests, and rivers.”
Photo collages by Alexandra Bellissimio.
“Her imagery explores the physical and psychological relation between nature and humans beings when combined through the use of collage. Through this unusual unification, her collages evoke a sense of empathy, intimacy, and harmony when humans and nature coexist.”
Is the universe made of math? Rafael Araujo shows us the possibility through his hand drawn series, Calculation.

Politicians Discussing Global Warming, Issac Cordal, 2014.
A fantastic sculpture on climate change. Cordal has several other mini sculptures in the series titled ‘Waiting for Climate Change’.
WeTheUrban has added a second edition to their Natural Palettes set. What makes these sets so awesome is that 1) They’re taken from nature 2) They’re nature gifs.
Wowza, talk about colorful. I found this awesome tumblr dedicated to creating color palettes from nature photographs. I especially like the gifs-seems to really bring the color to life.
Check out Natural Palettes for your viewing pleasure!

Approximately 1,200 miles off the southeast coast of Africa lies an island nation known as Mauritius that gives off the illusion of an underwater waterfall at the southwestern tip of the island. The visually deceiving impression, created in the water due to the runoff of sand and silt deposits, is especially effective and breathtaking in aerial shots. In fact, the illusion can even be seen on Google Maps.
Inside Japan, more and more activists like Satoshi Komiyama are publicizing their opposition to the annual dolphin drive-hunt in Taiji.
