Landscape is arguably the most traditional of genre's. Take this mountain range shot by German photographer Michael Najjar. Crystal clear and shot with a large format camera. That's what you'd expect. Take a closer look at that rock formation. Not quite right? That's because these landscapes from his series "High Altitude" have been reworked digitally to follow the peaks and falls of world wide stock market activity. His work is concerned with a society driven by computers and information technologies. Thinking outside the box then by using Landscape as a vehicle for exploring theses topics. Nice one.
