PHOTOGRAPHER BLENDS NIGHT AND DAY IN CITYSCAPES

ALL IS not as it seems in these deceptive cityscapes. German artist and photographer Wolfgang Hildebrand photographed cities across the world at different times of the day and then merged the images to create a new setting. The 45-year-old complied this creative photography project after visiting seven cities, from Paris to Los Angeles. Wolfgang, of Hamburg, Germany, says: “I am always fascinated by urban landscapes, the temper, the hustle of them, the energy, and of course the constant transformation that takes place.
