Asia is a beautiful and mysterious continent with breathtakingly beautiful landscapes, deep-rooted traditions, and ancient history. This is exactly how professional photographer Weerapong Chaipuck shows it in his photos. Looking at his stunning pictures, it is hard to believe that he took up photography only after an early retirement from the medical profession.
His main interest is landscape and travel photography, through which he shows us the beauty of our world. “To create a project, you must do homework about the place; which season and period of time are optimal for taking photographs, what is the perfect vantage point to capture the beautiful views, which lens should be used, and what your post-production process is going to look like,” - says Chaipuck. And that homework has paid off with well-executed and stunningly beautiful photos.
Although he uses a lot of Photoshop and other production techniques to create his interesting photos, he says that the atmospheric qualities of his shots are thanks to knowing the right time of day to shoot. “When shooting landscapes, it is 100% natural, and pinpointing the exact time of day to shoot, whether that be 30 minutes before the sun begins to rise or 30 minutes before sunset, is a constant challenge. But that’s also what makes it all worth it,” he says.
