In this series of photos from his book, Fairytales and Nightingales, German photographer Markus Lehr manages to capture eerily lit scenes that seem snatched out of some narrative or movie.
From the book's introduction, we learn that Lehr uses google maps to scout location with standout figures in and around Berlin.
Adam Magyar filmed the crowds waiting on the subway platforms in NYC, Tokyo and Berlin at 50 frames per second using a high speed camera. There is a fantastic article about him and his art over on MEDIUM.

This video shows the result of a photographic journey to berlin from 12 may - 18 may 2012. I´ve spent 6 days in Berlin with excessive work, but the last 4 months were even harder. Whenever I had some time, I had to import and customize the NEF files before I equalized them with the great LR-Timelapse from Gunther Wegner. (Adobe Lightroom is necessary) The observed jpeg had then to be droped into virtual dub and were rendered as avi. When this was done, I had to stabilize the sequenzes manually frame by frame (AE motion tracker) and rendered each of them in 3 different sizes: (4928x3264 pixels, 1920x1080 pixels, 1024x768 pixels) Last but not least the snippets were edited fitting to the beautiful title "Diving Through The Blue" by the respectable composer and musician Valentin Boomes. requests for licensing footage: www.b-zOOmi.com facebook.com/b.zOOmi requests for licensing music: www.valentin-boomes.de facebook.com/ValentinBoomes.Composer equipment: -Nikon D7000 -lense 18mm - 105mm -lense 70mm - 300mm -simple tripod great thanks to Thanit Areerasd _____________________________________________________________________________________ deutsch: Dieses Video zeigt das Resultat einer Fotoreise nach Berlin vom 12.Mai - 18.Mai 2012.
