N Salventiu's 'Portraits VI' is quite a stunning aray of [landscape photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-within-the-detour). The series features incredible images of lonely-looking benches, homes and beaches. The images look a bit desolate without people in them, but each has a certain charm all its own.

I love the [houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pasparakisfriel) and how ramshackle they are. N Salventiu has a knack for bringing alive inanimate objects; perhaps it's in the vibrant background within each image.

**Implications** - N. Salventiu's 'Portraits VI' is at once eery and stunning. I really think that this [series of photos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1) by N. Salventiu echos the beauty of the sublime. What do you think?
