The circus has always loaded me with wonder. Entertainers thrill with eye-catching costumes, power, bravery and grace. My Beneath the Huge Top portfolio provides circus performers in black and white on black backgrounds. Use of monochrome directs aim to the performers. It unifies and simplifies the visuals. It is significantly less predicted than retaining the colorful outfits and lighting.
I make eclectic and unconventional digital photos. There is pleasure in deciding on the lens, technique, viewpoint and crop. I strive for large affect and cleanse, fresh style and design.
To me, photography is the melding of serendipity, intuition, preparedness and talent. The selected posture of the topic influences the storytelling. Becoming enclosed and tucked into a base corner is isolating and grounding. However, searching across the body implies liberty to aspiration. Like a hatchling, the aerialist appears to emerge and test her wing outside the hoop.
I’m delighted when I can file a decisive second or fleeting event. For illustration, capturing movement only in the swishing mock sword and quivering hand, but nowhere else.
I favor dynamic diagonals around static photographs. Adverse (vacant) house delivers space. Below, the issue can most likely swing into the inky black encompass.
A symmetric image is completely balanced. Having said that, I favor asymmetric photos they have less predictability, a lot more visible stress and persuade better scrutiny.
Gradual shutter speed can reveal surprises about what is going (blurred) or stationary (sharp).
Radial motion and an S-curve enrich the preceding composition. The mix of misdirected (opposing) and harmonious parallel lines provides fascination.
Many of my photographs have symbolism, a psychological or spiritual element, or make a social remark. Preferably, you decode these messages or have your own interpretations. For me, the previous picture symbolizes conflict, the war of the sexes. He is large and in aim. She is diminutive and gentle. We see misdirection of their vertical and horizontal strains.
The dancer gracefully crosses the stage her fluttering arms and the synchronized hoop revolutions are obvious. Arrested motion contributes to a 3-D high quality.
In a well balanced composition, the visual weights of topics or opposing forces match. This generates a emotion of harmony. Sometimes stability happens by means of mirroring or symmetry. Diagonal traces give photos dynamism. Atmospheric photographs (with smoke, fog, rain, and many others.) have an exciting softness.
An strange digital camera angle and juxtaposition of dissimilar and misdirected subjects can make a photograph unique.
My award-profitable pictures show up in solo and team exhibitions, publications, and journals in the United States and Europe. I am out there for critiques and presentations. My inspiration stems from God and a lengthy list of photographers, electronic artists, architects, vogue designers, painters, poets, and comedians.
On my website and social media, you can see the selection of my perform. It consists of refined and vivid shade, abstracts and multi-panel pictures (diptychs and triptychs). I have a portfolio documenting the COVID-19 pandemic and much extra there.
