In the beautiful country, there is a special place. And in that special place, there is a landscape that defies description. It's not of this world.
This week I learned about the Atlas moth; it looks like this:

No words, right?
When I was thinking about how I feel about the landscape I'm about to present, I didn't want to be too hyperbolic, didn't want to get carried away. But the truth is that 'not of this world' is exactly how I feel about it. And the Atlas moth is a reminder that there are things in our world that are so wondrous they seem alien to it; as if they don't belong. They exist outside the bounds of what we consider reality.

This is some of my favorite work and I have a lot more to share in future posts. Part 2 should drop soon and there's a chance there'll be a part 3. And it's not all countryside/landscape, I have some city shots lined up as well. So watch that Inbox, 14stops is staying busy.
Alla prossima.
