It is a natural phenomenon caused by an algae bloom, also know as the Red Tide 🤯 Thank you to @kyleincpt for sharing this incredible image with us and also for the mini biology lesson. You really do learn something new every day.

This image in particular is for the Nataal story "Remember Me From The Future", a tribute to the depth and harmony we see in Lynette Yiadom-Boakye's paintings.

Photographer, Creative Director, Stylist, Producer Photographer, Creative Director, Stylist, Producer and all-round powerhouse @gabriellekannemeyer is the creative industry's gift that keeps on giving. Her strong visual language is characterised by an almost painterly layering of tone and texture, a nod to not only her expansive career as a stylist but also her background in the fine arts. In this image for @dailypaper's SS20 campaign, Kannemeyer uses the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, paired with the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM lens to transport us to a far away universe, a heavenly body with rules of its own. Shot off an island near Accra, Kannemeyer used a Kino Flo lighting system and smoke effects to achieve the ethereal tonal and textural qualities in this portrait. Styling and art direction @beridalgali Starring @erza_tamaa Hair and make-up @giselle_makeup Photo assistant @arnzechukwu Lighting assistant @jetofori Produced by Upplause productions and Daily Paper.
Photographer @daleannescogings's instagram bio rea Photographer @daleannescogings's instagram bio reads "Neonnoir | Cyberpunk | Dreamy" and we definitely agree. This overhead shot of Japan by night reminds us so much of "Lost In Translation" Dale shoots on a Fuji-XT3 and use a 23mm lens mostly (it's compact and lightweight so it's easy to carry around on long city walks. It's also not intrusive so it's a good option for street shots). Her gear bag also boasts a 50mm and the kit lens (18-55mm). In addition to the lenses, Dale also has a prism glass and a couple of prism filters she uses to create dreamy images.
Johannesburg-based photographer @aartverrips_offic Johannesburg-based photographer @aartverrips_official continues to push the boundaries of his creativity, producing striking visuals that are unrelenting in their aesthetic allure. This image of @shekhinahd for the March cover of @glamour_sa is exactly that. It's moody, it commands your attention and above all, it's just straight up beautiful! To create this image, Aart shot on the Sony a7R III with a Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens. The contrast between light and dark was achieved by using static and flash lighting. Produced and styled by @miraleibowitz and @boogymaboi Hair by @saadique with @lampostsa Makeup by @carolinegreeff
The ocean is a magical place with depths yet to be The ocean is a magical place with depths yet to be discovered. This image by photographer @mermaid_danii makes us think of this quote by David Attenborough... "The natural world is the greatest source of excitement: the greatest source of visual beauty: the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living." Thank you for taking us along on your underwater adventures 🌊

With rich blue, white, and rust plumage, the easte With rich blue, white, and rust plumage, the eastern bluebird is one of the most beautiful backyard birds. Its melodious song, insectivorous diet, and willingness to occupy birdhouses and nesting boxes also make this member of the Turdidae bird family a favorite visitor for many backyard birders! Thank you to photographer @beverly.w.cochran for a most gracious capture of this beautiful blue bird.
