Formation Two from Aerial Observations One - Limited Edition 5 of 35 Photograph

“Formation Two” is the companion piece to “Formation One” and was photographed on the same day with dramatic weather conditions. This day on assignment, a fog rolled in very quickly off the Atlantic Ocean that was a bit scary, and we had to stop my commercial assignment mid-flight. However, we remained in the area long enough to capture the images. I believe the fog worked very well here as it added a beautiful layer to the composition. This photographic work on paper is printed leaving an approximate 2-3 inch white paper border. Works are signed on the front lower right corner border under the image area. “Formation Two” image area size measures 22”x33”. Paper size measures 24”x36”. Date of work indicates date of original image capture. "Formation Two" is printed on Epson Legacy Platine or similar fine art paper or similar fine art paper: 100% cotton fiber, smooth surface, satin finish, unique paper that offers the look of a traditional silver halide paper but with a true fine art cotton base. With outstanding black density and color gamut, this paper is ideal for any color print. As a fine art aerial photographer, I am able to naturally abstract from particular landscapes various colors, textures, and shades of waters, creating images that shed unusual perspectives of everyday panoramas. Currently, my work is concentrated over the waters of Long Island, NY and includes images from the Atlantic Ocean, as well as, the bays, and rivers, and tributaries of the area. My images draw the observer in and disconnect them from present technology as some are left in disbelief that the images are natural forms not designed within the realm of digital manipulation. Presenting this unique perspective for the viewer excites their imagination and interpretation, while at the same time, creates a new awareness and appreciation for the fragile ecological systems that surround us that can be taken for granted.
