Architecture: Honorable Mention 2022 (amateur)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This is the Life Sciences Building and one of many that form part of The University of Bristol, UK.
It is a modern contemporary structure, in comparison to some of the much older buildings that surround it.
One of those premises is directly opposite and the reflection of this can be seen in one of the only visible windows on this particular side of the Life Sciences Building.
The wall of the building is constructed in metal that has been formed to reveal a very unique shape and was photographed on a bright clear winters day to show the full detail of all the component parts from this viewpoint.
AUTHOR
Don Hooper, Bristol based Wildlife and Landscape photographer with over 45 years’ experience, now specialising mainly in Black and White.
His world as we see it through the lens, captures life in a contemporary form; exposing the sensitivity and beauty nature possesses. With the intention of fabricating both stillness and movement within his shots, Hooper over the years has built a diverse body of work where his creative flare and eye for the bewildering shines through. Combining his passion for art, as well as photography, he mimic's the look of silhouettes in a highly contrasted and atmospheric fashion. Fulfilled with just his camera, an open landscape and the possibility of capturing just one great shot, Hooper thrives on the chance of seizing a single moment in time where no photo can ever be the same. Encapsulating an overall sense of calm.
