I Took Photographs Of Landmarks In Paris And They Look Like They Belong On A Different Planet (9 Pics)

ADVERTISEMENT

When I was in Paris and Versailles last summer, I was struck by the sheer ambiance and classical romanticism of its rural and urban landscapes. So much so, that I wanted to portray the mood I felt when I was at these historical places through different chemistry of deliteralized colors in my urban photography shots. I edited these interesting photos to simulate what Paris would look like on a habitable, parallel, and alien planet, a type of “Earth-Mars”.

The pink hues, cyan skies, and infrared-like palette are meant to infuse each of our senses with the elements in each stunning picture as if you were there to enjoy the music of such moments and walk a nostalgic path with me as if my camera was your compass.

I am utterly fascinated by how our imagination can paint a new reality with photography art. I think it is the reason why I love to experiment with various approaches to provide a dynamic, tangible experience greater than what your eyes can see.

    Truth be told, if you photoshop all trees to look pink, then yes, it looks like anything but earth

    I was going to say similar! Very nice editing jobs, but the title is misleading.

    Nice story bro. Looks like you used an infraredcamera instead of editing anything.

    They look flat and kitschy. I guess you have been in a beetroot mood!
