Using slower shutter speeds and intentional camera movement I am finding that it is possible to capture familiar landscapes in a more abstract and impressionistic way and by allowing the camera to move with my breath I feel that I am able to connect with the landscape on a more powerful level.
With my high key bird images I attempt, in camera as much as possible, to distill the subjects down to their purest form in order to forge an intimate connection, thus emphasising the essence of the birds, their ‘otherness’, grace and beauty or even their humour.
Movement shows us how to be free and uninhibited, and it connects us to the rhythms of life that we all share.
