9 Reasons to Go Wild This Weekend

Damn if the weather this summer hasn’t alternated between drought conditions and torrential storms. One week the plants are wilting, the next, they’re looking for a snorkel, trying their damnedest not to drown. Sorta the same with people. For us USA’ers, this weekend is a holiday weekend, but regardless where you are, this weekend largely marks the beginning of a seasonal shift. As such, I’ve found 9 reasons that you should get off your arse, get outside, and make some naturally otherworldly pictures.

Here’s 9 mind blowers from a handful of amazing photographers. Link out to their work if you have a spare minute…

Blake Gordon:

Hengki Koentjoro:

Kevin Cooley:

Barry Underwood:

Finally, a video from Nate Bolt, who condensed a ten-hour plane ride and 2,459 frames into a two minute video. And he caught the Northern Lights while he did it:

I shot a photo roughly every two miles between take-off in San Francisco and landing in Paris CDG to make this airplane time lapse.,Shot with a 5d2, a time-lapse controller, and a 16mm – 35mm, mixed with some iPhone shots.  I arranged on the Korg iMS20 iPad App. Edits and pans in After Effects CS5 and iMovie.

Happy shooting. Have a great weekend.

    Holy shitsticks, those photos are unreal!
    The weather has been equally unusual in the Netherlands: first the worst drought in decades, and now the wettest summer ever.

    That starry sky is pure beauty. If it was long exposure, was this on a motorised tripod? (No star trails?). Would love to know.

The show's logo is displayed on the left side, with "THE CHASE JARVIS LIVE" in bold black text inside yellow rectangles, stacked vertically. The right side of the image features a robotic figure, resembling a humanoid robot, meticulously working on a canvas. The robot is painting or drawing a grayscale portrait of a human-like figure. The robot's detailed mechanical components are visible, and the scene evokes themes of artificial intelligence, creativity, and technology. The background is minimal, allowing focus on the robot and its artwork. The composition suggests an exploration of AI's role in creative processes.Is AI the End of Creativity or Just the Beginning?

A melting white canvas on a wooden easel, with a clock face placed in the center. The clock hands are black and point outward from the center, but the white material seems to drip and melt off the edges of the canvas, pooling at the base. The background is gray, providing a stark contrast to the melting white substance. To the left of the canvas, yellow and black text reads: "The Chase Jarvis Live Show," with the words stacked vertically in a bold, modern font.
