Crewdson’s images are large-scale, cinematic, psychologically intense productions, in which he directs a production and lighting crew to create them. ‘Every artist has a central story to tell, and the difficulty, the impossible task, is trying to present that story in pictures,’ he said

Yellowstone, United States

Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone national park, Wyoming, is the largest hot spring in the US at more than 300ft wide at its widest point and over 120ft deep. The colours outside the pool’s blue centre are created by ‘thermophiles’ – heat-loving microscopic organisms that flourish in many of Yellowstone’s hot springs. The 2.2m acre park thrives as part of one of Earth’s last nearly intact large temperate ecosystems, famously preserving over 10,000 hydrothermal features and around 500 geysers – roughly half of the world’s total

Acclaimed French film director, screenwriter and producer Cédric Klapisch has collaborated with Gruyaert, providing text to accompany this striking visual journey. Klapisch’s fictional vignettes blur the lines between reality and imagination. A city of endless spectacle, New York becomes a global stage in Gruyaert’s hands – alive with drama, diversity and colour

Inside the Spanish pavilion, Oriol Vilanova’s Los Restos (The Remains) is ‘a large-scale intervention that transforms the interior into a pseudo-museum born from accumulation and reiteration’. Thousands upon thousands of carefully placed and grouped postcards adorn the walls

Swallows Pride by Devin Oktar Yalkin, 2020

Oktar Yalkın: ‘Working in black and white, I trace surfaces marked by time, including salt air, worn bannisters, and the imprint of bodies, constructing a quiet architecture of feeling shaped by touch, duration, and the fragile continuity of family.’

A hippopotamus swims in a lake Puerto Triunfo, Colombia. Villagers in the remote area are worried about the increasing spread of hippopotamuses descended from those brought to Colombia by drug lord Pablo Escobar for his private zoo in the 1980s. Some want them euthanised, while others appreciate the stream of tourists who come to see the animals

Perseid Meteors Over Durdle Door

‘Ancient fireworks’ from Comet Swift-Tuttle hurtled through the atmosphere with an ultra-wide angle lens. The natural limestone arch of Durdle Door, Dorset, UK is included. In the foreground, a singular glow worm was documented among reeds along the sea cliff edge. As the subject of astrophotography grows by demand, beauty hotspots and world heritage sites including Durdle Door are getting busy. With good reason that is why as astrophotographers, we need to set an example in protecting beauty hotspots and local ecology.
