People Matching Artworks: An Unusual Photo Series By Stefan Draschan More info: Website | Instagram…
I was really hoping these weren’t staged and the artist just spends weeks in art galleries and days in front of paintings to make these
Well guess what… That’s exactly what he did!
Lynda Barry, 2016
hamilton gardens!!
These are some of my favourite pictures I’ve taken 📷
why are star wars planets more boring than earth and our solar system like sure we’ve seen desert, snow, diff types of forest, beach, lava, rain, but like…
rainbow mountains (peru)
red soil (canada/PEI)
rings (saturn’s if they were on earth)
bioluminescent waves
northern lights (canada)
salt flats (bolivia, where they filmed crait but did NOTHING COOL WITH IT except red dust?? like??? come ON)
and cool fauna like the touch me not or like, you know, the venus flytrap.. and don’t get me started on BUGS like… we have bugs cooler than sw aliens
BASICALLY like???? come on star wars you had one (1) job where are the cool alien species
I KNOW!! I did a report on filming locations in Star Wars last year and just made a list of places that looked so surreal they could make a convincing other planet. You covered some on my list but if I could just add a couple more:
Tsingy di Bemaraha, Madagascar
Zhangye Danxia, China (similar to the Rainbow Mountains in terms of appearance)
Chocolate Hills, Philippines
Giant’s Causeway, Northern Ireland
So many missed opportunities with cool ass things on Earth, Lucasfilms smh…
Earth is effing amazing!
Quebrada de Humahuaca, Argentina
Lake Retba, Senegal
Tepui, Venezuela
Tianzi Mountains, China
these would make amazing Star Wars planets OR fantasy material:
Tsingy du Bemaraha, Madagascar again (but a different part)
(those are razor-sharp, if you were wondering. very little of this area has been explored because YIKES)
Lake Natron, Tanzania
(looks cool, but is alkaline enough to Kill Your Shit)
Lake Baikal, Russia
(the deepest lake in the world, seriously)
and I’ll wrap it up with Son Doong Cave, Vietnam, the largest cave in the entire world.
it puts anything Dagobah has to offer to absolute shame:
(seriously, the largest chamber is 660 feet high. you could jam a fucking skyscraper in there and still lose it)
anyway I really like caves thanks for coming to my ted talk
If I’m ever gonna make a movie with cool weird alien features I’m first gonna ask the internet for weird, wonderful places on earth to look at for inspiration.
I’d like to contribute!
Namib-Naukluft Park in Namibia
Cave of Crystals, Mexico
Socotra Island, Yemen
Crooked Forest, Poland (look at their funky little trunks they look like they’re doing the Michael Jackson lean)
Holy shit that's so cool

Can you believe that there are people who live so close to the ocean that they can just think “hey, I should go to the ocean” and then they just do???
For those who can’t go to the ocean….
…I can bring an ocean to you.
thank you

not to assume that everyone reblogging this doesn’t already know this, but this image is of flowers thrown in the mediterranean sea to honor the lives of migrants who drown trying to make it to europe. i see a crazy amount of aesthetic blogs linking themselves in the comments and saying things like “aēsthėtic” for something that should never ever be an aesthetic post imo. please honor the lives of these people by not divorcing this image from its original context and not forgetting the continued conflicts that set their deaths in motion.

A wave crashes into a lighthouse in Porto, Portugal. The photographer was dragged by the wave and had to receive care for hypothermia, but is fine now. x
