Landscapes: Honorable Mention 2021 (amateur)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Grand canyon, United States.
At sunset, the sun's rays illuminate only the high crests of the canyon.
The light of the long ridge collides in the composition with the dark hole represented by the canyon, giving the idea of two complementary elements, as in the oriental tradition of Yin and Yang.
AUTHOR
Christian Basetti lives in Milan.
Passionate about architectural and landscape photography, he feels the challenge of making the shots talk about the great works built, as if they were silent narcissistic creatures waiting for someone to express their greatness.
Since 2015, he has been passionate about ancient decadent places too, giving voice to these structures full of melancholy charm.
With a style aimed at aesthetics it is never limited to the documentary aspect, but wants to show the pride of places destined to be erased from time, inspired by Caravaggio's style in the representation of environments.
