RIVER CROSSING (Single)
DESCRIPTION
One of the greatest shows of wildlife on earth is the journey of millions of wildebeest moving from Tanzania’s Serengeti to Kenya’s Maasai Mara in search of food and water. A true experience for the senses. The sight of thousands of wildebeest creating dust as they approach, the sound of the stampede, the smell of the wildlife and the anticipation of the river crossing is an incredible visual feast. And to be present to be able to capture this journey is indeed a privilege.
AUTHOR
Christine Goerner is inspired by, and searches for, beauty in the natural world. With an eye for detail, she is drawn to textures, colours, patterns, forms and light and shade in the landscape and in nature. These design elements feature strongly in her photography, due to her education in graphic design. She loves to capture and explore various interpretations and compositions of a scene or subject.
Her professional expertise as an Art Director enables her to capture images and apply a layer of observation and storytelling to her photographic images, elevating an ordinary subject to one that aims to be visually extraordinary. She hopes that her photography encourages the viewer to see something in nature they may not have noticed before and enables them to experience a shift in mood brought by her observations.
Christine was born and educated in Melbourne, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Graphic Communication from Monash University. She is a Melbourne-based creative and self-taught photographic artist with recognition from international and local photography competitions across several categories including aerial, art, black and white, landscape and wildlife.
