Italian graphic designer Paolo Pettigiani's 'Infrared NYC' series features classic photography of the New York Landscape, but with a twist.

The artist took photos of Central Park in New York City -- which is done quite often -- but turned the nature and some surrounding architecture pink with infrared/aerochrome pictures. While professional photographers and tourists alike tend to take similar photos of the park, the beauty captured in these New York Landscapes is unlike most. The bright [pink hues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rendezvous-apartment), mostly contained in trees, grass and the tops of some buildings, are eye-catching to say the least.

The photographer's scenic and serene photography -- with its vividly pink touches -- puts a new and creative spin on [Central Park photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amager-nature-park) -- making the Infrared NYC series a unique standout.
