The Foggy Night (Series)
DESCRIPTION
The Foggy Night is a series of fine art color landscape photographs that focus on the San Francisco Bay Area and cityscapes exploring lights.
This body of work is about uncommon beauty based upon night lights within the landscape. Due to continued transformation, the night lights never disappoint me as they show a different face with each visit, revealing their strange elegance.
The idea is the uncommon beauty of the urban landscape on foggy nights. The fog soaks into the color of the artificial lights, and changes their colors. Through the dim lights and subjects, I plan to show the changeability of color in these still images to viewers because we can get so caught up in our daily lives that we forget to actually look at our surroundings and see what is amazing about them.
As viewers explore the work, I intend for them to look upon the images and experience the unique beauty that is hidden in the night.
