Sometimes, while photographing, pictures might turn out like landscapes of imagination. Inner landscapes that might resemble a dream or a fantasy. Sometimes one is able to capture the hole scene or some small fragments that the mind put into a new contex. This contex might vary greatly based on cultural and religious background.
Today I photographed vortex underwater and by some reason it resembled to me, more like a intergalactic wormhole or a volcano on some far away planet. And with some simple PP it became just that.
With the danger of being introduced to some of your inner thoughts, fears, fantasies and/or fobias, show me your inner landscape :)

Before I read your text and saw your amazing picture I already thought of this picture. It was 9/Jan/2015 on the way to the cremation of my mother, when I saw this stain on the floor and was immediately grabbed by it. I cannot say it had any meaning, it just expresses a feeling, an impression, an echo of the moment
-
Just what I had in mind Frank! I see a woman in a black dress moving in a grey landscape. No wonder you saw this on that occation.
-
Very nice Børge. I see the bubbly volcano quite clearly - like on some exotic sci-fi planet surrounded by a dense city, all lit-up at night.
-
Fascinating Børge!
-
Børge, that is one of the best photos I have seen in quite some time. Thank you. I will be appreciating it for quite some time!
What lens did you use to capture this?
-
Glad to hear Tristin! I used the Nikon 1AW1 with the 10 mm f2,8. I think it was set to f5,6.
-
inspiring and out of the box
-
Yes, beautiful captured, alien-like.
-
As a child I grew up with the fairytales of Asbjørnesen&Moe. It was illustrated with the drawings of Theodor Kittilsen. His drawings shaped my imagination of creatures, places and phenomenas in nature. Even to this day I find myself seeing things that I think Kittilsen might draw.
-
The image in #9 for me has the charme of a spray painting, some super-photographic, flowing ... style .
The mood is bending magic nature, moonlight fairy tale ... wonderful that this is possible.
-
Børge, another spectacular image!
I really like the softness of the foreground :)
-
The softness was added in PP to make the scene look like I felt then and there.
-
Amazing pictures, Børge. Sonfossen is soo dreamy and beautiful..
-
Thank you Knut! Its a personal approach, so its always nice when someone else find them pleasing :)
-
Wow! Spectacular photos!
-
What a thread! From the starting point of the idea. That water vortex...caught my attention and my imagination. Magic and powerful. Now you got me searching for mine :)
Thanks for this.
-
That was the whole idea :) Dig them out and post them!

Aahh.. The never ending force of water. It keep grinding us down. Til we are no more.
-
The notion of being all alone but still being watched.

Thanks for commenting, in this particular location the shore is a cliff of sharp volcanic rock, the grinding would be very quick and effective

Asking questions is a good thing.
I think no, it is not too obvious. The inner landscape expands in the eye of the spectator.
The needed thing is something where the imagination is projected on.
Triggers and process are different, the individual milage may vary.
IT obviously works on your picture.

No. This image has magic, sensitivity and a sense of intimacy with...I don´t know. Maybe because is yours.
Thanks a lot for sharing this Frank. I love it
-
Thank you. Means a lot to me.

Your image give me a sense of quietness and tranquility, Fons :) The subtle greens, blue and the pink are enhancing this feeling.
-
thank you Børge
-
Sometimes you feel that someone is after you :)
-
Ooh nice - that one looks like a desperate Root Man, on the run.
-
Quality shot, Børge!
-
Borge. I love every single shot you post. Big fan of yours. The ice and oil monster. Sucker.
Fons. A feather flying in a spring environment.
-
Thank you Frank :)
-
Børge, your first abstract photo is truly spectacular. A real abstract photograph. I should have done it, because I work in a laboratory where we have magnetic strirrers :)
I also liked the aurora shot. I have not seen one yet. But at least we have better weather ;)
Best,
-
Thanks Tejpor! Abstractions is what this thread is intended for. Here is a another one. A wolf among sheep.
-
#38. Overprocessed rocks to a very good end. Theatrical.
-
The "rocks" are actually lamps and the picture was taken in total darkness. It was underexposed to get the silouette.
-
and the wolf?
-
Fons, you got science fictional!
I´ve been thinking about this thread. It provokes me -in a very good way-. So far, I have remember this images shown here. I have another couple in my head.
1, Alien sunset.
2 With the giants
3. My sun, my water. -I´m not sure if I have post this one already..-
-
and the wolf?
It's my Canis lupus familiaris :)

Hopefully this thread will force you to create pictures that are more than renderings of you see, to what you feel or think when pressing the shutter.
The two first pictures was glorious, Paco. A real ominous feeling creeping up on me.
-
So do I. Barely have time to shoot lately.
Thanks for the comments and the ideas!
-
Paco. BW is right. Two wonderful pictures. Esp #2 for me. Wow. Eoilennes. They can help us but not heal us. Thank you!
-
A really impressive and very consistant series of high emotion/feelings, and all quality images!
Many other threads or themes seems to wander off,,, not this one.

Intertellus time warping

It`s when your vision starts to behave like this, that you know its time for a quick stop and a large coffee :) Very nice Sten!
-
Super Sten!
-
Thank you!
Stenr, that works. Two car at the same speed?

touching ...
( this might be no fairy tale but certainly a fairy wafting, gliding, floating ... )

Pray for sanity
I see people running away from themselves
trying to hide from their own image in the mirror
sometimes I need to come to this onion shaped peaceful place
to pray:
let them find back to their roots

better edit on big machine, the first edit was on my phone, quite bad

I need no church to speculate about creation. I visit my cathedral every day and try to visualize my eternal "light". Sometimes I might find it and other times my thoughts impairs my vision. Tonight was one of the more "productive" sessions where both the Df, lens and I saw the "light".
-
I love it BW. Sensitive, exquisite.

I love it BW. Sensitive, exquisite.
Ditto. Very creative Børge!
-
Yes Børge. The wonders of nature remind me every day of how small our human contribution is and you manage to show these wonders in a few pixels. Like the sun shining through a flower.

Yes, you did see somthing for sure.
-
Very nice Børge.
Even without the presence of a visible sun, there is something noticeable.
