📷 Nature's Sculptures And Abstracts At Nanya Rock Formations

Nature's Art


Today I present some photos I took at the Nanya Rock Formations in the north eastern coast of Taiwan. This is the same place where I shot the light painting photo with a rock in the foreground (Long Exposures at the Blue Hour with Light Painting).


These were shot in the morning just after sunrise. I wanted to focus on the smaller details and abstract patterns in the rocks instead of the overall landscape.

The image above reminded me of mountain ridges or perhaps a desert-like scene. What got my attention were the shadows and the lines.

The image to the left is a shot of patterns in the rock that I really liked.

Lastly, the image below reminded me of a skull with an open eye socket, I adjusted my camera angle until the ocean filled the space behind it to make it blue.



Equipment Used

  • Camera: Sony A7
  • Lens: Zeiss 24-70mm f/4

And great nature and wildlife it seems! (We were whatching through a lot of your older posts too, and it really impressed us!) And that is three of the most important things in one place. 😃 We Will get a chance!

Lastly, the image below reminded me of a skull with an open eye socket, I adjusted my camera angle until the ocean filled the space behind it to make it blue.

That is an incredible shot.

I didn't see the skull until you pointed it out. The ocean in the background is just perfect. Nice job!

Thank you very much @lydon.sipe!!

Nice series.

Thank you @team101!

These looks incredible! Is that the ocean I see in the background on the skull picture?

Thank you @valth! Yup that is the ocean!

What a scenic and unique landscape - you captured it well. I'd love to see some drone footage of this island.

Thank you @overkillcoin! I really need to get a drone, that's something I've been wanting to try for a while now =)

Gorgeous captures of these rock formations, nature has an endless amount of variety in landscapes, environments, habitats. We're lucky to live on this beautiful planet.

Thank you @kontora, we sure do live on a beautiful planet :)

Stunning location @shieha and excellent shots. The place reminds me of the Pinnacles in Western Australia! I especially like the close up shot with the water in the background.

Thank you so much @myday! I hope to visit Australia one day!

Some of the most beautiful art in this world, is natural.
