It is so easy to take unique and unusual photos in Kentucky–and they don’t even need filters or Photoshop. The right image can stimulate the imagination and a whole array of different feelings. All that is required is the right moment to click the camera’s button. Each one of these amazing images are bursting with color, or some type of unusual effect caused by the sun and natural light.
Each one of these photographers knew the exact right moment to take the shot. Here are 13 amazing Kentucky photos you won’t believe are real:
- Dandelion
Popp Arazzi The sun shimmering down can make even a dandelion look magical.
- Heaven opening its door
Popp Arizzi This breathtaking light descended on the field and hills, as the sun peeks through. I suppose it could “possibly” be considered a piece of Heaven.
- Henry County sunset
Brad Lyons The sky changes from a golden glow to orchid blue as the sun says goodnight.
- A frosty morning
Alyssa Kolb This looks like a fairy tale setting, but it is just a castle in Kentucky, not Fairyland.
- A sky divided
Popp Arazzi The line seems drawn and blurred in the sky over a beautiful field of Kentucky green.
- Blue skies over a field of white
Popp Arazzi This image gives the appearance of marshmallow fluff surrounding the sky underneath to overhead.
- Sunburst at sunset
Popp Arazzi The warming rays of a Kentucky sunset just encourage love.
- Pink skies in Prospect
Popp Arazzi This looks more like a watercolor than a photograph. However, the colors in this gorgeous sunset are untouched.
- Pink and lavender
Popp Arazzi On this night, the sun was an artist, simply layering pink over lavender.
- A ray of sun
Popp Arazzi This shimmering light seems to single this flower and grain out of an entire field. Only these select few benefit from the warmth of sunbeam.
- Stuck in traffic?
Jenny Burdine When it has the kind of view this photographer captured in Louisville, the wait is not so bad.
- Just flying through Madisonville
Chad Fuller These geese are basking in the golden glow of the Kentucky sun as it descends under the horizon.
- Henry County
Bryan Payton Not to be to nerdy, but the Eye of Soran is hiding in Henry County. This beautiful sunset provides the perfect cover to hide behind.
