This photographer moved to Sydney, Australia under the aliasAtomicZen, drawn by the magical beauty of the country. Yet words like “beautiful” or “spectacular” hardly do justice to Piyathasanan’s photographic works. From New Zealand’s Lake Tekapo to Australia’s Cradle Mountain, his lens captures timeless, shimmering moments. Piyathasanan also hopes his images will inspire people to travel on their own and pick up a camera to capture the beauty around them.

In his blog, he wrote: “The goal of my photography is to convey the beauty of nature, and more importantly, to inspire others to take up photography. I believe that the more we see of this world, the deeper our understanding of the planet we call home will become.”
