British photographer Louis Lander-Deacon is one of those artists you just know you are still going to be hearing about 30 years from now. His work reveals an immense talent and curiourity that can only result in spectacular photography. I love this series Louis created using coloured powder and a few willing friends. The very subdued and cold hues of the forest are a perfect backdrop to the vividly pigmented clouds of colours. Colour powder and smoke bomb photos seem to be growing in popularity and I personally love the randomness that results. Who knows what photograph you will end up with? The first image shown above has a colour palette that actually took my breath away. Yep, I need to find some willing friends and see what colour I can cover them with… (p.s. these photos also remind me of posts I have done on holi celebrations and silence/shapes by filippo minelli)

Willing friend. Right here. Potential RAC (Random Acts of Colour) Project!?! I heart heart heart these images!
Perfect! Meet me in the forest, Saturday morning at 9am? ha! Yes, the RAC Project is another feature that must come to life. And soon it will!
Any idea how to diy colored powder (cornstarch) for fun projects like this?
