The ceaseless drone of traffic: Interstate, Santa Rosa, California<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n

With such a plethora of landscape images out there, it can be hard for a photographer to know what to do to stand out. There\u2019s absolutely nothing wrong with shooting landscapes we\u2019ve seen before, so long as you explore fresh perspectives. Every landscape has plenty to offer and more often than not is home to secrets that have, thus far, gone unexplored.<\/p>\n

One recent advance in technology that promises to reveal at least some of them, is the drone. It used to be that aerial photography was the preserve of those with enough money to jump on board a light aircraft and shoot the vast landscapes beneath its wings.<\/p>\n

However, drones are now becoming affordable, meaning that more of us can finally see what the world from several hundred feet above really looks like. As drone photography becomes increasingly popular, though, we run the risk of becoming blas\u00e9 to the sweeping images it provides.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, there is one photographer who seems to have hit upon a unique approach to landscape and drone photography. Ayd\u0131n B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f<\/a>, a photographer from Turkey, has found himself quite the centre of attention on social media with his mind-bending depictions of the American landscape that he calls Flatlands<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Recent Hollywood fare such as Inception<\/em> and Doctor Strange<\/em> have seen the camera and special effects teams warping and contorting the landscape like a M\u00f6bius strip. To see this occur in a single static image, a result of Photoshop composites, is an uncommon experience. B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f’s vertiginous images are bent and protracted, giving us a view of the land we could never possibly experience in real life.<\/p>\n\t\t

B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f was heavily inspired while reading Hyperspace: A Scientific Odyssey through Parallel Universes, Time Warps and the Tenth Dimension<\/em> by Michio Kaku, which looks at the history of the development of ideas concerning multidimensional space.<\/p>\n

The book uses examples from Edwin Abbott\u2019s satirical 1884 novel Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions<\/em>, about a two-dimensional square\u2019s dream of visiting a land of four dimensions.<\/p>\n

B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f tracked down the novel and was immediately impressed that a book written so long ago could attempt to illustrate inter-dimensional transitions and the idea of interconnecting dimensions. It was the ideas planted in his head by both books that led B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f to create his warped worlds.<\/p>\n

You can imagine how they could have an impact on someone like B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f, a man who has spent years honing his skills in 3-D effects, animation, photography and video.<\/p>\n

They made him question issues surrounding such subjects as wormholes, black holes, parallel universes, gravitation, and the bending of space and time.<\/p>\n\t\t

This isn\u2019t the first time B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f has attempted this type of visual trickery. A couple of years ago, he turned his hometown of Istanbul into a psychedelic playground.<\/p>\n

The original version of the project found\u00a0B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f creating the final composites using physical prints. The results weren\u2019t exactly overwhelming so it was then that he decided to put his design and software skills to use and stitch them together using Photoshop. These proved to be far more successful and just a year or so later,\u00a0B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f was standing in the vast American landscape with a drone in the air above him.<\/p>\n

He had researched all of the locations using Google Earth. All in all, the planning and research took\u00a0B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f around two months to complete. That\u2019s in addition to coming across potential shooting locations for other projects. The photography itself took around one month, during which\u00a0B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f covered a scarcely believable 10,000 miles.<\/p>\n\t\t

Pressing the photographer on the technical details of how exactly he creates his images is a fruitless exercise. He guards the process jealously, and perhaps rightly so. How many times in photography\u2019s history have we seen a pioneering photographer create something unique, only to see his work ripped off and repeated time and again?<\/p>\n

What we do know is that as soon as\u00a0B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f sets his heart on a location, he will recreate the area in 3-D, using the software on his computer. Once he has placed a series of virtual cameras around the map, he can explore it and decide on the best vantage points. Then up goes the drone to take the shots that will go on to be painstakingly stitched together in Photoshop. Each image contains 18-20 separate photographs.<\/p>\n

In the end, it took\u00a0B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f around one month to complete the final compositions. That\u2019s a lot of work but the quality of the result is undeniable.<\/p>\n

B\u00fcy\u00fckta\u015f now plans to expand his project by visiting Germany, England and China, each location offering a unique variation on his unusual perspective.<\/p>\n\t\t
