Return to Friends Of Natural Exposures
As a wildlife photographer, I have long been fascinated with the symmetry,design and patterns found in the animal world. Many times a pleasing photograph is the result of harmonious shapes and color tones or an engaging subject that affects the viewer through actions, an intense stare of an eye or a languid stretch after a cheetah's cat nap on a termite mound.
Photographs capture moments that will never reoccur. Still photography allows the viewer a luxurious moment with the subject and validates
the illusive emotion I felt at the moment of capture. The images I share are reflections of how I see our beautiful, complex world.
In making my animal designs I call "Animasques", I present designs resulting from compiling many identical images to form something that didn't exists before. In a way, it reverses the way of looking at photographs as a compilation of many small dots of color information, With Animasques I take animal forms and arrange them to create designs.
