Zócalo Glow
Looking directly up from the lobby of the Gran Hotel Ciudad de México, this shot captures the breathtaking stained-glass ceiling in all its intricate detail. The Art Nouveau masterpiece is a symphony of color and craftsmanship, with delicate metalwork framing the glass into elaborate patterns. Sunlight filters through the faceted panels, casting a warm glow and bringing the rich hues to life.
It's a ceiling that demands attention, you crane your neck, unable to look away, tracing the elaborate curves and flourishes. An architectural centerpiece, it embodies the grandeur of a bygone era, elevating the
hotel’s historic charm.
Located in the heart of Mexico City’s historic center, the Gran Hotel sits on the edge of the Zócalo, the city’s main square. From here, you can admire the vast Metropolitan Cathedral, the National Palace and the towering Mexican flag waving in the breeze. The hotel itself is a spectacular place to visit and its rooftop restaurant offers a fantastic spot for lunch, with breathtaking views over the square. An experience that combines history, elegance and an unbeatable vantage point over one of Mexico’s most iconic locations.
Tropical Winds
A simple yet timeless scene, a sailboat gliding through the turquoise waters of Caye Caulker, Belize. Taken from The Split, near the Lazy Lizard Bar, this image captures the essence of tropical paradise. The deep blue sky seamlessly blends into the crystal-clear Caribbean Sea, where turquoise hues shimmer in the sun. Small waves break on the barrier reef in the distance, adding depth to the scene, while the sailboat in the center drifts effortlessly, offering a dreamlike escape.
Caye Caulker is a bustling island with no roads, just sandy paths, making it the perfect place to slow down and embrace island life. A favorite among scuba divers, it serves as the main hub for those venturing to the world-renowned Great Blue Hole, one of the planet’s most awe-inspiring
natural wonders. Add in a multitude of laid-back beach bars, stunning seascapes and a warm Caribbean breeze, and you’ve got the ideal island getaway.
Blue Lake
A stunningly edited drone shot of a sailboat on Lake Windermere, drifting through the largest lake in the Lake District National Park. In summer, the water is alive with sailing boats, their white sails catching the light as they cruise against a backdrop of rolling Lake District hills. It’s a magical combination of British lakes and mountain scenery, something truly special.
This image focuses on a single sailing yacht, isolated from above, its sleek form surrounded by nothing but deep water. The edit enhances the mood, with the top fading into white and the bottom corner into shadow. It’s a quiet, reflective moment on Lake Windermere, capturing the serenity of being out on the water, where the wind in the sails and the gentle lapping of waves make for the perfect escape.
Sky Lines
This long exposure shot captures a truly unique perspective, blending light, nature and the vastness of the night sky. Taken in rural Portugal, the image shows a tree illuminated by a drone’s LED light, with a stark white line trailing upwards above it. As the drone ascended in a straight line, the exposure was left open, revealing not only the glowing outline of the tree’s form but also the surrounding star-studded night sky of Portugal.
The long exposure photography technique adds depth and intrigue, transforming a simple tree into a surreal, masterful vision against the black night sky. The stars around it seem to be part of the tree’s story, giving a sense of vastness and connection to the universe. The balance of symmetry between the tree’s illuminated form and the upward-reaching line creates a harmonious visual, while the night sky adds a peaceful, almost meditative atmosphere.
Whether you’re a fan of astrophotography, or simply enjoy the calm beauty of a starry night, this image showcases the subtle artistry of night sky constellations and the magic that can be captured in long exposure night photography.
Petronas Palm
Standing tall against the night sky, the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia are a true marvel of modern architecture. Captured from below, this shot showcases the towers' intricate lighting, emphasizing the bold design and cutting-edge features of these iconic skyscrapers. The skybridge connecting the two towers adds to the breathtaking view, offering a striking visual contrast against the dark sky.
In the foreground, a shaded palm tree introduces a touch of nature, blending the modern with the organic. This contrast not only softens the sharp, cool lights of the towers but also reminds us of the warm tropical climate that envelops the
city. The energy and beauty of the city lights reflect Kuala Lumpur's dynamic urban landscape, making this one of the most beautiful modern buildings in the world. The KLCC mall and KLCC observation deck are just a few of the amazing modern buildings nearby, offering spectacular views of the towers and the vibrant capital.
