Abstract nominee

My aerial artworks are unique photo portals that convey the energy of natural places of power. The name of this piece is “All-seen Eye”.
I took this aerial shot in Utah state, USA from a small Cessna plane. The rock formations in these areas are more than 200 million years old. Just think about it - they have seen everything that has been happening on our planet over all this time. And if we compare this age with an average human life, it becomes clear how small we are in this system, but at the same time - we are a full part of it, and we can observe all its beauty and greatness.
