(Really) Stunning Pictures and Photos

Photography is a very powerful medium and a very difficult craft. Excellent photos don’t only display some facts — they tell stories, awake feelings and manage to share with the audience the emotions a photographer experienced when clicking the shot button. Taking excellent pictures is damn hard as you need to find a perfect perspective and consider the perfect timing. To achieve brilliant photography you need practice and patience. However, it is worth it: the results can be truly stunning.
Below you’ll find some brilliant photos and stunning pictures — some pictures tell stories, some are incredibly beautiful, some are funny and some are very sad.

1. Water and a Girl
Beautiful composition, excellent scenery, amazing play of colors.


2.Yaw? Weeeee
You probably shouldn’t try this in your local trains. Such pictures are unforgettable.

3.Astronaut Self-shot Over Earth
Could this be the best self-shot ever? It’s truly out of this world.


4.Reflect
A reflection from the louvre’s pyramid.

5.Glittery Ball
“The reflection in this water droplet, it looks like the glitter is stuck to the water, but NO, it is reflections from the glitter on the feather.”


6.The Ball is Coming!
Analogue shot with Seagull 6×6 (Chinese clone of Rolleiflex), made in 1983. “The gulfball is suspended on a fishing line in front of the camera. It was a stormy day. So I had to shoot 5 or 6 films for getting one image with the ball in the center position AND a light reflection on the golf club.”



7.Two ways at looking at a fish

8.Mt. Fuji
