This amazing panoramic photography by Aaron Hobson is called “Cinemascapes”. I love how Hobson, a self-taught graphic designer and photographer, plays with dramatic lighting, natural compositions and attention to details in this autobiographical series.

Cinemascapes seem as un-captioned movie stills; It’s as if suddenly you find yourself drawn into a movie and its dark ambiance just hits you, pulling you in.

Every photograph begins with the setting, says Hobson. “I try to find a location that has interesting natural lighting, stand there for minute, then return to my beaten-up 2001 Hyundai full of old clothes, a shovel, empty wine bottles, duffel bags, McDonald’s bags, and choose what I think might work. It is very spontaneous, almost instinctual. I like to keep the storylines minimal and leave that part to the viewer’s imagination.”
