Sky, space, stars - more than one thousand photographic works have been created on these topics, the best of which simply stun the viewer with universal greatness. Wide landscape panoramas of our dear old woman Earth can also be majestic and beautiful. And what happens if you try to combine in one photo work the beauty of the starry sky with the beauty of the earthly world? It will turn out to be breathtakingly strong photographs by Nathan Spotts a series Unrealistic Scenes ("Unreal Scenes").
Professional photographer Nat Spotts lives in California. “Photography has gone through my whole life,” he writes in his autobiography. He takes pictures, publishes in collections, maintains a photoblog - and he probably also likes to dreamily look in starry sky … After all, the starry sky above us is such a thing that even old Immanuel Kant amazed, and this is worth something! Nathan Spotts' admiration for the harmony and stunning beauty of the California sky, especially clean and bright on summer evenings, resulted in a large-scale and memorable series of photographs Unrealistic Scenes.
These photographs are based on several photographs of the sky, terrestrial landscape and horizon, combined into one vertical panorama. Of course, it was not done without computer graphics, which further intensifies the feeling unrealistic … However, colossal, epic scope photographs that easily united our planet with the Universe, and by itself can put you into a trance.
In addition, a sense of unrealism arises from the fact that many of Spotts' photographs combine incongruous - the shine of the sun and the bright sparkle of the stars, thereby bringing together day and night. But here is the artistic truth: although, due to the atmosphere, we cannot make out the stars behind the glow of the daylight, they are still there. You can observe the Sun and the stars on the Moon at the same time - that is why Spotts' photographs make the familiar terrestrial landscape look like types of alien planets … This further emphasizes the singularity and beauty of heaven and earth, merged into one giant painting.
Viktor Tsoi, in his famous song, claimed that " between earth and sky - war. "Looking at the photographs of Nathan Spotts, I somehow cannot believe it. On the contrary, it becomes clear that there is peace between the earth and the sky. The world we live in.
