ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The cIty of Arts & Sciences in Valencia is a treasure trove for photographers. Containing some of the most exciting architectural examples by the Spanish Architect Sebastian Calatrava it is a joy to photograph. One of the challenges is the sheer scale of the buildings themselves. In this case, I used a tilt & shift lens to capture the full perspective of the building without resorting to Photoshop perspective gymnastics to correct the shot.

AUTHOR
I fell in love with photography at the age of 13. It has been a lifelong passion ever since. I look to create strong emotional images that tell a story. The advent of digital has been a revelation for me. It enables creativity and has elevated photography in my view to a more dynamic and innovative art form.

I am particularly interested in long exposure and use it to create high key fine art photographic images. We live in a complex and cluttered world where visual respite is rare. Fine art photography uses negative space to create a sense of calm, allowing the viewer to focus on the main subject without distractions.

With the advent of Photoshop fine art photography has flourished. Often the process requires not just a pre-conceptualisation of the final creative concept, but the expertise to be able to handle and master complex post-processing. I find both parts of the creative journey highly rewarding.
