Few people have see the sights that photographer Vitaliy Raskalov has captured, which makes his photography that much more exciting. With snaps from various corners of the planet, Raskalov defies gravity by getting as high as possible on structures and capturing the sights he experiences.
When first perusing Raskalov's work, I got a little bit dizzy; several of his shots are of his feet, looking downward to the ground that is some several thousand feet below in some cases. The other shots he takes that look outward onto major metropolises seem to dwarf our sense of self and make us feel much smaller than we are.
From Dubai to Africa, Raskalov shares his perspective of unfathomable sights with the world through his camera in a way that makes life seem a little bit easier in the midst of so much expansion.
