“I create visual essays”,

writes Valtýr Pjetur Daregard on his website. The photographer, based in Reykjavík, reveals on Instagram a universe that borders on the abstract. Incongruous settings, bodies in motion… Each image reads like an adventure into the senses.

@tek.tones

Seattle-based photographer Tek Tones breaks free from the codes of street-photography to develop his own style. His Instagram gallery is a testament to this. With long or multiple exposures, the resulting images are fragments of a world-city far out of time and space.
