In a breathtaking fusion of celestial beauty and terrestrial wonder, Russian photographer Daniel Kordan captures the ethereal majesty of the Milky Way reflected in the Salar de Uyuni waters in Bolivia. Positioned at a staggering 4,000 to 5,000 meters above sea level, this expansive salt flat transforms into a colossal mirror under the pristine night sky. Kordan, who is based in Tuscany, Italy, meticulously photographs this natural marvel, where the glittering stars of the Milky Way merge with the tranquil, reflective waters. The result is an otherworldly scene where the heavens seem to meet the earth in a dance of light and reflection.
Kordan’s images showcase the Salar de Uyuni as more than just a geographical feature; it becomes a canvas for the cosmos. With every shot, he captures the silent poetry of the night, where the vast expanse of salt and water plays a perfect host to the starlit sky above. This series stands as a testament to the sublime beauty that occurs when our world and the universe beyond it find harmony. Through his lens, Kordan invites us to experience this symphony of light and landscape, prompting a deeper appreciation for the natural wonders that surround us.
