Abstract nominee

Long Lake Release shows the ever-changing colours found in Victorian lakes. The image captures the dreamlike qualities of many of the smaller dried lake beds. It evokes a sense of tranquillity as well as mystery with its calming colours and intricate patterns.

Peter Harlow is an aerial abstract photographer, beginning his practice in late 2021. From a viewpoint of less than fifty metres above the surface, nature paints its own abstract images, unique and perfect. These images are constantly changing with the wind, rain and seasons. In this sense, his photographs represent impermanence and fragility. By presenting a different view of the landscape, his intention is to cause you to pause, consider and reflect on the changing and transformative beauty of nature.
