The Potomac River in this icy state is truly majestic. This photo by Dennis Dimick is quiet and calm, which is why I love the aftermath of a snowstorm.

A photo posted by Nana Gyesie (@nanagyesie) on Oct 21, 2015 at 4:17am PDT

When I noticed Nana Gyesie mentioned that this photo was taken with an iPhone I was even more impressed than I already was. His portrait featuring Nation of Islam members is striking and composed beautifully. It’s more than just the main subject’s glance slightly off the frame—the image is filled with many different moments that keep me locked in the scene.

Silhouettes by Victoria Pickering
Silhouettes by Victoria Pickering

This iPhone shot by Victoria Pickering makes great use of heavy contrast and grain to add an air of mystery and eeriness, and negative space to emphasize the two subjects.
