Nathan Hayag inspiration // Landscape

Singapore based photographer, Nathan Hayag takes images of cityscapes, landscapes and waterscapes. His work can be found on flickr account here.

This image by Hayag is of buildings overlooking water, which is creating reflections. The image has been taken at night time because the sky is dark and all the night lights are on along the water. The lights from the buildings and night lights of the city are creating reflections along the water, making it look as if there are two sets of buildings, one upright and one upside down in the water.

This image is done in sepia and monochrome theme colours of brown, grey, black, and white. There is a bridge going from the right of the image into the centre which the viewer's eyes will follow to the buildings in the centre of the image. The sky makes the image look as if it has been taken on a long shutter speed because the clouds look as if they have moved whilst the image was being taken.

This image is looking straight across at the skyscrapers in Singapore. The image has been taken with a long shutter speed, this can be seen by looking down at the road in the image and seeing light trails from cars going along the image. The image has been taken at night, this is seen by the sky being dark. The city night lights are keeping the building and image illuminated.

This image has been taken along the rocks, overlooking the water, with the background having the shape of the nearest land over the water. This is effective because the rocks are at the very bottom of the image taking up about a third of it. The texture of the water is visible through the image with a pinkish colour reflecting onto it from the sky.
