Nature is an endless source of inspiration for any photographer, because what could be more beautiful than trying to capture the variety of shapes and colors? Frenchman Emmanuel coupe, who is considered to be one of the best landscape painters in the world, has created a series of amazingly beautiful photographs that capture scenic landscapes of Utah.
The Utah Desert is a unique place that has won worldwide fame due to the fact that there is a huge balancing stone here, the height of which reaches 39 meters. In addition, there are also man-made architectural wonders: the luxurious Amangiri hotel for visiting tourists and a whole settlement of Mormons who settled in Skala.
The American desert attracts travelers with the beauty of its landscapes: in the photographs of Emmanuel Coupe, the blue ridges of the mountains are gently shaded by the yellowed foliage of the trees. The series of photos was taken in November at Capitol Reef National Park. The author gave her the “telling” name “Desert Blues”, which very accurately conveys the general mood prevailing in these pictures. Emmanuel Coupe is in love with the nature of the Utah desert, he emphasizes that he practically did not use graphic editors to process the images, the natural palette of colors is so good.
The pictures of Emmanuel Coupe, which capture the charm of the American National Park Capitol Reef, can be compared with the autumn landscapes of the Canadian Algonquin Park (we have already introduced them to the readers of the Culturology.ru website). Looking at these photographs, you understand that Stanley Horowitz was truly right when he argued that winter is engraving, spring is watercolor, summer is oil painting, and autumn is a mosaic of all seasons. Natural mosaic from Emmanuel Coupe looks just magical, more works can be viewed on the photographer's personal website.
