Impressions: Portraits of Asia

Météores by Dominique Laugé

Photographer Dominique Laugé takes gorgeous photographs of stunning landscapes the world over, with a special interest in the way that meteor impacts have shaped some of Earth's most surreal terrain. Shots from a trip he made in 2012 to the dry, shifty Taklamakan Desert in Northwestern China are a notable highlight here, as are his still life works that play with the different effects of natural light.
