Photographer Illuminates the Desert with UV Light and Captures Extraordinary Sights
Cody Cobb is an American landscape photographer who just can't settle with traditional landscape photographs. His goal would always be to capture a totally different perspective of an ordinary landscape. 'Spectral' is one of his outstanding ongoing projects which carries his vision. He makes dreamlike landscape photographs of the American West with his special lighting trick.
His special trick to be exact is using UV light, to create a Sci-fi atmosphere for landscape photographs. UV light can reveal an invisible (to visible light) spectrum of colours of living and non-living objects, especially bacteria. He projects UV light onto desert flora, ravines, rocks, water streams, etc. and captures their otherwise hidden colours with his camera, in the evenings and at night times.
