American Museum of Natural History ARCHIVE PHOTOGRAPHY

The American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) has opened up some of their photographed back catalogue online. Among my favourites are the disturbingly beautiful dioramas.

Featurette: JAAP SCHEEREN

Jaap Scheren has an interesting and varied portfolio. I particularly like the low key IGUANA series and Research Animals which is more subtle than it sounds.

EYE OF SCIENCE

The work of Oliver Meckes and Nicole Ottawa is stunning. Their philosophy for Eye of Science is stated as follows:

"As a two-person team of photographer and biologist, our aim is to combine scientific exactness with aesthetic appearances, and thereby help to bridge the gap between the world of science and the world of art. We are committed to the rigorous standards of scientific investigation, but also to the use of color as a creative and harmonious tool to achieve beauty. By combining science and aesthetics we hope to enthuse our audience. Day after day we explore fascinating forms and structures in a world beyond human vision."
