Photographer David Benjamin Sherry is a Los Angeles-based photographer whose monochromatic 2014 series Climate Vortex Sutra is a stunning collection of images capturing various geological landscapes through the filter of a single color.
Some of the majestic landscapes captured and colored by photographer David Benjamin Sherry includes the Oregon and California coasts, the rocks of Utah, Wyoming and Montana.
When shown together in an exhibition, the stark contrast of the hues is fully felt, a feature that is highlighted by the black and white images that are a part of the series and a large color swatch scale leaning at one end of the gallery.
