Fashion / Beauty: Honorable Mention 2022 (amateur)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Look for the Goddess in the people you pass in the street, the cleaner and the checkout girl; they're everywhere if you just look.
AUTHOR
Mark took up photography in 1985 (he’s much older than he looks) and learned about exposure from the pictographs on Kodak film boxes. As a matter of principle, he's remained resolutely an amateur, since no-one will pay him.
Unable to draw, but fascinated by art, he found his way home to the camera and photoshop, and laid his life at their alter. As costly and demanding as this devotion may be, Mark has known much joy and fulfilment in this pursuit. Although his first love was landscape, he finds it very satisfying to present other people in extraordinary, ethereal or romantic ways.
