Kevin Cooley by Jonah Samson

Kevin Cooley’s photographs of planes taking off and landing look like scenes from a sci-fi adventure filmed in suburban America. Made by using very long exposure times, his pictures show houses that glow in the twilight and streaks of explosive lights and sparks that illuminate the sky. It’s as if ray-guns are being fired from outer-space and landing in our backyards.

Also check out another series of his work, which was also shot at night in a Norwegian Town that is one of the world’s most remote places (only 800 miles from the North Pole). You can find this and more on his website.

Photographer Simon Høgsberg's new work, We're All Going To Die - 100 Meters of Existence was shot from a bridge overlooking a railroad platform in Berlin in the summer of 2007. 178 people have been captured in this impressive 100 meter wide image (highlights above and below). The power of the portraits is in the subjects expressions—you can feel what they are thinking in...
Chris Hornbecker: 1 millimeter a day
Photographer Chris Hornbecker challenged himself with an interesting project last year. The idea was to take a brand new photo each day. Beginning at 14mm, Hornbecker zooms the lens by 1 millimeter a day and uses that focal length to shoot and post a photo before going to sleep each night. The photo above was taken at 27mm. The photo below is at 387mm....
Stacey Steers: Phantom Canyon
Stacey Steers' animated film "Phantom Canyon" was created from over four thousand handmade collages incorporating the images from Eadweard Muybridge's famous series of photographs from 1887 called "Human and Animal Locomotion." In this film, which is intended to mirror how we all find meaning in our experiences, a curious woman goes on a surrealistic journey with an alluring bat-winged man. The process used to...
