Honorable Mention / 2024 / Fine Art / Architecture
Upwards
I set out to capture the majesty of the US Air Force Memorial. It was a mostly clear day, so I rendered this image in black and white and focused on the shape and light of the spires.
Photography has always captivated me. I am passionat the ability to freeze time, arrange scenes, and manipulate light to realize a vision. When I photograph a scene, I envision its final presentation; image capture and post-processing are my means of bringing my imagination to life. My fine art images have no objective "correctness"; they embody my artistic vision. I create images for myself, hoping they will resonate with and inspire others.
I specialize in monochromatic photography, which allows me to reduce a scene to its fundamental elements and focus on the interplay of light and shadow.
