I am a landscape photographer who aims to provide an emotional connect to the beautiful world around us. Photography is a vehicle to express my inner most sense of connection and spirituality to our majestic landscape. This has led to an unending quest of not just the right light, but also the right conditions to provide a window into my feelings. I also believe that the ultimate manifestation of my art rests in the creation of expressive prints. So, I spend a lot of my time in constantly refining the digital raw files using techniques similar to those employed in the traditional darkroom to ensure that the prints are optimized for color, contrast, sharpness and saturation.
California’s Pacific Coast is replete with photographic opportunities ranging from dramatic bluffs to sea stacks, craggy rocks, piers and tafoni. The tafoni formations resemble a honeycomb and is formed by the forces of erosion on rock surfaces. While making this collection of photographs, I wanted to accentuate the textures and patterns of tafoni. Soft directional light provided the perfect conditions to translate my vision into reality.
All the photographs in this collection were made at Bean Hollow State Beach situated roughly 50 miles south of San Francisco.
