Night nominee

A night devoid of darkness. Heaven in a hurry. Man-made hell - electric and seductive. Classic elegance, but a little uneasy.

I knew I wasn't interested in chasing a typical desertscape / nocturnal aesthetic that night. So I started with the most basic concept, composition, exposure settings, and kept playing around throwing everything ever so slightly off-balance. For things to stay familiar, but hit different.

Is it just a self-serving provocation or a spark for fresh perspectives on something meaningful? The answer lies, conveniently enough, within the viewer.

I am. And ever since I have been, I have always chased the adventure of exploring and expressing that gift of my existence.

A husband. A father. An entrepreneur. An amateur photographer. A nature-loving expat who decided to live in the wonderful island of Gran Canaria. How many things can a man be?

I don't dwell on such categories much. Some may be more permanent than others, but in the end they are all just different windows looking into the same space - my true essence that I keep discovering in various ways and expressing through different outlets.

Because life unexplored is not worth living.
