Images of the Colorado Rockies taken by photographer Abelardo Morell. He uses a prism to project nearby landscapes onto the ground, which gives the pictures their unique texture. Explanation of his process under the cut:

From his website:

My Tent/Camera is made of a simple light-proof material that wraps around a large adapted tripod that has a plate on top which holds two devices:

1: A 90-degree prism with a lens attached (diopter) This prism acts like a periscope projecting an image of the nearby landscape on the ground below. The focus of the projected image can be adjusted by raising or lowering the height of the tent-Technically this has the effect of changing the focal length of my lens attached to the prism. This makes it possible to achieve discrete focused areas of the image.

2: Next to the prism on top is a digital camera looking straight down and focused on the ground. A picture made this way shows, both the granular details of the ground -stones, grass, dirt cement, etc. plus an added projected vista of the landscape giving the overall result an illusion of a painterly patina that I like. The camera is connected to a laptop computer outside the tent which allows me to compose, see and focus an image with precision.

While I know that technical explanations alone do not fully convey my deeper artistic reasons for exploring reality this way, I think that it is important to outline clearly how this device works and, in a sense, express what I am after. The evolution of photographic technology, since its invention in 1839, has always been tied to the artistic vision and ambition of its practitioners. My aim in this work is to ground myself in new realities.

My pictures show what was there in front and under me. Nothing that was not there has been added. I do believe that the reality of the world seen through various lenses and temperaments surpasses anything that I might want to invent.

#just learned about this guy. i'm going insane. absolutely incredible approach to photography. #abelardo morell #photography
