Travel photographs and minimal architecture fill the Instagram gallery of Thierry Leroy, an art director and designer. Their common trait? Human presence – adding a poetic, elegant or comical dimension to each picture. A one-of-a-kind account.

Canadian photographer Anojan Satha likes dark atmospheres. Those moments where night and light create together in uncertain spaces. But far from staying in darkness, Satha also plays with elements and compositions to capture images oscillating between dreamy and fantastical universes.

There is a Lynchesque atmosphere in the images of Los Angeles-based photographer @ahnolo. We don’t know much about this artist, member of the Slow Light Collective. He likes taking close shots of his subjects, and using a strong flash which highlights their surprise and the curious situations he captures.
