It's easier to see what it is once you see the whole scenery. It's a really clever framing, 10/10

Also colour saturation put to the max.

Not necessarily, just different lighting. OP looks like it was taken with low-angle full sunlight.

This all sounds a bit overly complex, have we 100% ruled out witchcraft?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

Oh, so that's a textured wall, and not the horizon/sky

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Thank you for unfucking my brain.

I like this style, just don't know what it's called.

I can't speak for the photography style, but that style of using walls of ice in a composition is called "impossible in 30 years"

Haha! Oh, now I’m sad. :(

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Me too, buddy. Me too. :(

That's very optimistic of you to think humans will be around to have names for such things in 30 years.

Ah, sorry. Is "anti-hot apartment tower made from solid aqua cola and lacking residents" better?

A tetraptych or pseudo-tetraptych maybe? Closest concept I can think of.

The upper right quadrant is a terracotta wall that goes right up to the water. Below that in the photo is the reflexion of the wall. The left half is just normal water with no reflexion.

It's a really interesting composition. I'm not a fan of these kinds of things being called "unaltered"/"unedited", because after a bit of searching I can't find any evidence of that. But it certainly is not a composite.

If it's shot on film, it's possible the saturation is natural, but I can't find metadata anywhere.

The bottom right is a reflection on the water of the wall at the top right.

You must bend the spoon.

Man-made structure in the top right

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aaaaaaah ok

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

was anyone else able to see the pic for what it is and then left confused looking for why it’s supposed to be confusing

Somebody please explain

Yep. It's literally cropped from the original and impossible to argue it's unaltered
