Into Nothingness by Paul Bauer, a photographer based in Vienna, Austria, is aptly titled. The misty mountaintops captured in each still appears to dissolve into white nothing as the scene extends outwards. Of course, this is only natural when one is on top of the Dachstein-Glacier, one of the highest spots in Austria.
Although the sheer height of the photo series is not translated in the images that make up Into Nothingness by Paul Bauer, something more magical is captured. Full of mystery, it allows the audience's imagination to run off with itself. Anything is possible beyond the soft horizon of the mist. Full of greys and blues, the scenes could easily take a sinister tone or one full of promise.
