The Ethereal Long Exposure Photography of Darren Moore. Self-taught photographer Darren Moore creates ethereal black and white landscapes using a method called daytime long exposure, where a special filters are attached to a camera lens to reduce the amount of light. These neutral density filters allow for the shutter to open for extended periods of time in broad daylight, from 30 seconds to upward of 15 minutes for a single exposure. Moore shoots mostly in locations around England, where he frequently visits causeways, breakwaters, shipwrecks, and other features along the shore.

You can see more of Moore’s photography over on Flickr and in his online gallery. He’ll also have work later this April in a group show at the Patchings Art Centre.

Fascinated by the mysteries of the ocean his entire life, photographer Pierre Carreau (previously) documents the power and serenity of ocean waves in his now decade-long project AquaViva.

After obtaining a business degree and going into IT, Carreau dramatically changed course in 2004 and moved with his family to the Caribbean island of St. Barthélemy where he now photographs waves as an artistic pursuit. Carreau’s high-speed photos capture waves that appear frozen in time, giving them an almost sculptural appearance. “Water is amazing,” Carreau says. Carreau observes that the photographic images of AquaViva may sometimes be perceived as objects rather than as two-dimensional representations. Seen here is a collection of new photos from 2014 mixed with a few earlier shots we had yet to feature on Colossal, and there’s plenty more to see.

2014 iPhone Photography Award Winners Prove That Amazing Photos Can Be Taken Without An Expensive Camera. With the advent of ever-improving smartphone camera technology, the digital SLR’s exclusive dominance in the world of quality photography is slowly crumbling. Smartphone users around the world are proving that a good photographer’s eye is far more important for taking a good photograph than your photographic hardware, so the IPPAWARDS (iPhone Photography Awards) were created to recognize their efforts. The photos in this competition, which was organized by Apple, need to have been taken with an iPhone, iPod or iPad and cannot have been edited on any way by desktop software (device-based apps are allowed). Take a look at the winners – maybe they’ll inspire you to take an amazing photo with your own smartphone!

Mystical Spanish Forests Captured In Enchanting Photos By Guillermo Carballa. Guillermo Caballa, a talented photographer based in Vigo, Spain, loves to take beautiful photos in the forests of Galicia together with his lovely dog Malu. Caballa’s photos, which he shoots with an Olympus E-M5, caught our eye not just for their beauty, but for their distinctively introspective atmosphere as well. Most of his photos feature lonely forests wreathed in thick fog and a pensive man going for a walk, often together with the ever-loyal Malu. Their subdued but picturesque mood seems to calm and comfort the weary soul. For more photos of mystical forests, be sure to check out this post about the Hallerbos forest in Belgium.

Les paysages nuageux de Rüdiger Nehmzow. Edwin gagne la confiance des animaux de la forêt pour les photographier dans leur intimité. Photographier des animaux à leur état sauvage n’est pas une chose aisée. Pourtant, Edwin a réussi à capturer des moments d’intimité des animaux de la forêt dans d’étonnants clichés après avoir gagner peu à peu leur confiance. On vous fait découvrir ses photographies. Edwin Kats est un photographe néerlandais, doté d’un incroyable talent : celui de gagner la confiance des animaux sauvages. Ainsi, c’est dans un rayon de 10 km de forêt par laquelle est entourée sa maison, qu’il a capturé les moments de vie de plusieurs espèces animales allant de l’hérisson au renard des neiges en passant par une multitude d’oiseaux, nullement préoccupés par sa présence.

Il nous confie : « J’aime les écureuils et les hérissons en particulier, parce que chaque individu a son propre caractère. Ces clichés sont vraiment superbes !

How Our World Would Look If You Were A Bird « PixTale | News stories in photographs from Around The World. December 22, 2013 2179838 views in World, Cool Famous landmarks like the Arc Du Triumph, the Pyramids of Giza, and the Sagrada Familia have been photographed countless times by photographers from around the world, and they are recognizable to most, if not all, of us.

But this collection of stunning aerial photographs gives us a bird’s-eye-view of these places, casting them in a totally new light. Most of the pictures are of places or things that most of us could easily identify right away. The images illustrate just how much a change in perspective can alter. Although taking photographs from a bird’s actual perspective is possible, most photographers prefer taking pictures like these from hot-air balloons, helicopters, gliders, or very tall structures.
