Artist Puts Silhouettes Next To Clouds To Create These Stunning Compositions (21 Pics)

You could say the series began out of boredom. "If I remember correctly, I was just reading some scientific articles for my course at the university and my eyes were getting more and more tired, so I looked up to the sky [to rest them] and saw the Moon."

19.XCV liked the sight so much, he thought he should do something cool with it. At the time, he was already taking sunset photos but he wasn't editing them. So he decided to switch things up a bit and try to produce his first 'tweaked' creative photo.

Thus, the moon rose was born and it immediately went viral. Its success inspired the artist to continue working with this technique; he transforms the images in Photoshop, where he adjusts the vibrancy and hue of the colors, making the sky more memorable, and adds a digital cut-out-like shape over the top that brings together the whole picture.

"I always start with thinking about an object from our daily life, like a flower, then I wait for sunsets and look for good clouds or a great moon. Once I find the right moment, I take the photo with the object [in mind] so that I can add it to the photo later."
