Everyone likes to see a good photograph, regardless of the theme, but every once in a while someone shows up with a new angle, a new perspective that stimulates our curiosity.
This is the case in our subject for today. No, it’s not a well dressed person or a warzone view. Some people detect beauty in the slightest detail and that’s what brings us here.
Japanese-based photographer R. Tanaka chose some elements from the Periodic table and using Macro photography, revealed the beauty and mystery associated to some of these elements, like gold, silver or bismuth. The pictures look amazingly beautiful, like the materials came from out of this world, shiny and psychedelic.
This exquisite work does not surprise us. Tanaka, through his career, also engaged in science photography, photomacrography, macro photography and photo microscopy. With a vast range of interests, this is just one more of his great ideas.
