Honorable Mention / 2024 / Fine Art / Still Life

Table for One

Late afternoon sun cast long shadows of a table and chair against a wall.

I am Morris Asato or ‘Morey’ to some of my friends and an amateur photographer from San Diego, California.

I have been using photography as a creative outlet for several years. As you can see from my images, I do cover a variety of subjects but the one element I try to bring to my composition is some blend of art and photography. Since a lot of my images are creative expressions of what I sense and visualize, the term creative art photography probably sums it best.

My hope is that my images connect with others who can sense the feeling I was trying to convey.
