Experimental Landscape Photography. This unexpected natural manipulation opportunity was taken along the Maltraeth Cob on the Isle of Anglesey , UK. I was sitting in a dip at the roadside waiting to get the chance to take some close up shots of herons , when , to break the boredom, I began to look up from my below ground level view along the road and noticed that the heat of the road as it warmed up in the spring sunlight had begun to create a heat haze above the road and was literally turning the landscape into an impressionistic painting. Nature as the artist in a whole new way. I decided after taking a few images of the empty road to wait for the occasional morning walker to pass by in the hope that this type of composition could be achieved , when the individual looked sharper against the background so that they would appear as though walking into a dream. This walker eventually came along and with the combination of a low pov and spot focus on a continuous shooting setting I captured this. This version is the unedited image proving that nature's manipulations and artistry is doing all the work. Natural Manipulation Action Photography.
