Pingback: Hutt Lagon by Steve BackCICCELLA
Written by Guest Blogger Madeline Rudin
At first glance, Steve Back’s photography is confusing, ambiguous and completely mesmerizing— his mission accomplished. As an engineer turned commercial photographer, Back’s complimentary skills have most recently resulted in a concentration of images taken from an aircraft while traveling over Hutt Lagoon in Kalbarri, Western Australia. Captured over the course of three years, the un-doctored photos are a striking representation of the largest micro algae production plant in the world. Reflecting hues from bright orange to hot pink, the seemingly un-natural colors are the fortunate consequence of an organically produced beta carotene in the water— so vibrant it’s sourced as food coloring. Challenging the imagination through scope and scale, Back’s remarkable collection evokes a sense of tranquility as unearthly dreamscapes give the viewer a visual escape from the familiar and an introduction to the extraordinary.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
