Into The Darkness (Single)
DESCRIPTION
The big harvest moon rising over Paignton Pier in Devon. I always love moon trails. The time they take can make them very unpredictable. This one is of almost an hour and I chose to stop the exposure at the end of the pier to play with the negative space of the night sky, creating a half and half contrast. The image was shot with a canon 5DS and Lee Filters to help balance the ambient light of the pier with such a long single exposure.
AUTHOR
My name is Paul Carruthers I am a professional Landscape\Fine Art photographer based in Devon.
I picked up a camera about 25 years ago after a serious injury.
I used my images to improve my graphic design but soon realised people where talking about my photos held within my designs. So I decided to concentrate solely on my photography, reading and learning as much as I could.
I was approached by a Gallery in The Bluecoat Chambers in Liverpool about fifteen years ago to sell my work and the rest as they say is history.
I won The British Life Photography Awards 2017 and I have been shortlisted for The British photography Awards for the last two years. I have also had many other shortlisted and honourable mentions. Most Notably for the Monochrome Awards for the last two years.
