During the summer months, microscopic algae causes the water to turn pink and red - at this time the lakes look like the surface of another planet.
This unusual, yet completely natural, landscape helps immerse the viewer into the illusory boundaries of the interaction between man and nature. This is a study of a person's first reaction to familiar things in an unusual view. It speaks to the nature of the awareness of one’s own reality perception limitations, which every person sets for himself.
The first time you see the pink salt lakes of the Kherson region in Ukraine it feels as though you are looking at another planet. During the summer months, microscopic algae causes the water to turn pink and red. The view from above is literally out of this world, which is why I chose to use a drone to convey the atmosphere of this unusual place. In 2020, this project was shortlisted in the Sony World Photography Awards — Professional category — Natural World and Wildlife and HIGHLY COMMENDED, awarded as Travel Photographer of the Year. Photos from this project have been published in various world media, including the print issue of the National Geographic Traveler magazine and Aesthetica magazine.
