Every morning & afternoon, Namibia's mesmerizing Deadvlei comes alive in a symphony of light, shapes & shadows. Two beautiful trees seem to reach out, to hold on to each other, as the shadows creep in & the last line of light recedes.

Around them, the ordinary street life of Kyoto continues, with modern buildings and everyday surroundings forming the background.

A photograph of a metal fire escape attached to the side of a building in Tokyo, Japan, seen in bright sunlight. The structure has multiple levels with narrow platforms, railings, and ladders stacked one above the other, forming a repeating vertical pattern. Strong sunlight hits parts of the metal, while other sections fall into deep shadow, creating a clear contrast between light and dark. The sharp lines of the railings and landings make the fire escape stand out as a bold, geometric feature against the building’s surface.

A photograph of old wrought-iron railings seen from very close up, with their dark metal surfaces lightly dusted with rust.

A photograph of a restaurant kitchen window at night, glowing with warm light from inside.

#photography #photographersunited #eastcoastkin #shinjuku #tokyo #visitjapan #urbanphotography #oldbicycles #travelphotography #wanderlust #wallart
A photograph of a well used bicycle resting outside a small restaurant in Shinjuku. The bike leans close to the entrance, surrounded by wooden wall panels and stacked crates, with a paper lantern above giving off a soft, warm glow. The metal frame of the bicycle looks worn and the paint is slightly faded, suggesting it has been used often over time. The setting feels quiet and everyday, like a small local spot that blends into the street, with gentle lighting and simple details that make the space feel personal and lived in rather than modern or flashy.

'SIDE BY SIDE'

#photography #photographersunited #eastcoastkin #blackandwhite #longexposure #wallart
A photograph of two tall, angular towers rising side by side, seen from a low viewpoint at ground level. The buildings are sharply defined with strong straight lines and flat, geometric surfaces, and their reflective panels catch light in contrasting tones, making the edges stand out clearly against one another. Above the towers, the sky appears soft and blurred, creating a smooth backdrop that contrasts with the crisp, rigid structure of the architecture. This blur makes the buildings feel even taller and more imposing, emphasising their height and vertical reach. The upward-looking angle naturally pulls the viewer’s attention from the base of the towers toward their tops, giving a strong sense of scale and making the buildings feel dominant and monumental within the frame.

#photography #cityscape #tokyo #nightphotography #aerialphotography #photographerunited #eastcoastkin #wallart
A photograph of a long, straight city street in Tokyo at dusk, viewed as it stretches away into the distance. The road is lined with tall, closely packed buildings on both sides, and a series of traffic lights and street lamps runs along its length, glowing warmly as daylight fades. The lights form a continuous trail of colour along the street, guiding the eye forward and giving a strong sense of direction and movement. The scene feels busy and active, suggesting many people and vehicles moving through the space as the city transitions from day into night and more windows and lights begin to shine across the skyline.

#photography #photographersunited #eastcoastkin #venice #wallart
A photograph of a narrow back canal in Venice, Italy, with calm water running through the centre and an ornate iron bridge arching gently from one side to the other. Along the canal edges, traditional Venetian boats are tied up, sitting low in the water and resting quietly against the stone banks. Tall, closely packed buildings line both sides of the canal, painted in soft pastel colours that appear slightly faded and worn from age and exposure. Their textured facades, with shuttered windows and uneven surfaces, lean subtly toward the water, enclosing the space and giving it a sheltered, intimate feel. The scene feels still and unhurried, showing an everyday corner of Venice far removed from crowds or busy landmarks.

A photograph of a row of Dutch greenhouses seen from behind, their glass panels catching the light in a way that throws strong, dark shadows across the surface. The intersecting lines of the framework and the angled light create sharp geometric shapes, almost like a pattern of triangles and rectangles. The image is simple and stripped back, with the repetition of form and contrast between light and dark giving it a rhythmic, abstract feel.

A photograph of two horses in a rural field. In the foreground, the curve of a horse’s mane fills much of the frame, its strands catching the light and showing fine texture and movement. Behind it, another horse is slightly out of focus, its head lifted as if mid-whinny. The background horse’s blurred shape contrasts with the sharp detail of the mane, creating a sense of depth and life. The overall mood is calm but alive, capturing a quiet moment between two animals — one still and one in motion.

A black and white photograph of the majestic Callanish Standing Stones on an overcast day on the Isle of Lewis, Outer Hebrides of Scotland. The stones, weathered by centuries of existence, stand resolute against the backdrop of a grayscale canvas, their solemn grandeur accentuated by the long exposure technique that blurs the passage of time. Wispy clouds gracefully meander over the scene, casting a gentle shadow and infusing an air of melancholy, as if the very landscape echoes with the ancient whispers of history and mystery.

A photograph of a towering cliff face rising sharply from the edge of the sea on the Scottish coastline. The rock surface is rugged and craggy, showing deep textures and jagged edges that emphasise its dramatic height. At its base, the ocean appears smooth and mist-like, blurring into a soft, silken surface that contrasts with the harshness of the stone. The scene is presented in strong contrasts of light and dark, which draw attention to the power and raw beauty of the cliffs against the calm expanse of water below.
