When you look at pictures Canadian photographer Matt Molloy I recall the Yeseni lines: "The soul is sad about the heavens, She is a dweller of unearthly fields …". True, the works of the master from Ontario are more like paintings than digital photographs. To achieve this effect, the author uses an unusual technique: he "superimposes" several images of the same landscape, as a result of which the sky looks like painted with bright strokes.
Mat Molloy is happy to talk about the secrets of his work, describing step by step the process of creating unusual photographs. To create each work, Matt needed an average of about half a thousand pictures. The frames are taken in a row with an interval of about 5 seconds, and then "superimposed" on each other using Photoshop. This technique allows you to make images more voluminous, as well as to see some phenomena "in dynamics". For example, this way you can capture the trajectory of the stars in the sky. In short, Matt's photographs literally accumulate time, because everything that happened for several hours can "fit" in one instant.
Photos by Matt Molloy are a delight in every shot, although, of course, on our website Culturology.ru we have repeatedly written about other photographers who are in love with the sky. That only there are "night" pictures of Ben Canales, "unreal scenes" by Nathan Spotts, as well as black-and-white "thunderous" photographs of Mitch Dobrauner.
