Landscape photography

Hi all!

Some may have seen these before. They are shots of landscapes taken by Photographer Matthew Albanese.

But are they natural landscapes... or miniature settings? :)


Very convincing to my eye, I can just pick them as mini's, but gee he is good. These are all made from common household items.
Made from wood, moss, yellow glitter, clear garbage bags, cooked sugar, scotch-brite pot scrubbers, bottle brushes, clipping from a bush in bloom (white flowers) clear thread, sand, tile grout (coloring), wire, paper and alternating yellow, red and orange party bulbs.


What do you think?

Note the first picture's similarities to an Australian landscape, then know it is actually of a lunar scape.

Interesting hey, I could have sworn he was going for outback Aus. Beautiful either way. ;)

Not that it has to do with this, but to do with my point about lunar vs aus landscape.

What do you think of this... 5 minutes work, aus landscape, colours removed, luminance changed, pasted lunar buggy and astronaut.
Weird hey... Kinda makes you think, not to hard to fake if I can do something reasonable in 5 mins... Maybe they were actually in the middle of Aus, not on the moon. ;)
