The Everyday Astronaut Visits A Flooded Bonneville Salt Flats

by twistedsifter

 

For the last two years, photographer Tim Dodd has never travelled without his vintage Russian space suit (it was an impulse online purchase). Whenever a photo opp presents itself, Tim dons the suit and takes awesome self-portraits in an ongoing series entitled, Everyday Astronaut.

Recently Dodd drove 1300 miles to visit the Bonneville Salt Flats in northwestern Utah. It had been a lifelong dream to visit and drive the famous flats but the weather had other ideas. A rainstorm flooded the flats and instead of getting to drive them, Dodd took an amazing series of photos for Everyday Astronaut instead.

The artist shared the resulting self-portraits on reddit and even provided the camera settings for each shot to help aspiring photographers. For more be sure to check out Everyday Astronaut at the links below.
