Tamás Ladányi Constellations

The astro-landscape images on display represent a unique approach to photography, combining geographical and astronomical themes through the lens of the camera. The author combines the diversity of the natural and built environment with the spectacle of celestial bodies. The exhibition also focuses on the passage of time, the entire sky as seen through the lens of a fish-eye lens and the human figure in relation to landscapes and the starry sky.

The word "Constellation" in the title refers both to the Latin term for the constellations and to the combination of heaven and earth.

The Veszprém-based astrophotographer works as a Hungarian member of the internationally renowned "The World At Night", an organisation that presents the night face of the world and his images are often featured in educational media, NASA and National Geographic. In his work he is in daily contact with the phenomena of the starry sky; his photographs trace celestial events along with landscape features.
