Mike Behnken inspiration // Landscape

Thailand based photographer, Mike Behnken takes cityscapes, landscapes and waterscapes. With this being he has travelled around for his images that I've posted beneath, ranging from Bangkok, Trang and Nepal. This creates a varied look throughout his images as they are of different places, so he can therefore capture different pieces of land within his images. His images are on his flickr account, which you can reach by clicking here.

This image is of the new year's fireworks happening in Bangkok, Thailand. The bright colours from the fireworks work well against the plainness from the dark sky. The firework is made up of yellow, white, red, green, and blue, which brightens up the sky and creates this the point of interest.

This image would have been created as a HDR image because of how vivid the sky and the buildings are and that its captured it all with a greater dynamic range of luminosity than a single image would have been able to.

This image is a picture perfect place of where everybody wishes that they could be instead of in England. This is because of the palm trees which are in the foreground of the image, the bluey green water from the two beaches either side of the leisure facilities, and the tree covered mountains in the background of the image.

This image by Behnken has been taken from the top of a mountain overlooking a city to mountains opposite. This creates the vantage point of long view as it's looking across to the distance. This image has an element of tranquillity to it because you're looking at what's happening away and above from it all.
