Gold Medal in the category « Macro Art Photography »

This series was created over a period of four years. I am a passionate close-up photographer and have used elements of steel and aluminium to transform my ideas into images in finely tuned compositions of perspective and light. When creating my images, I always focus on the authenticity of the explorative creative process, combining the photography of a scene with simple steps in post-processing. What I love most about this style is the challenge of visualizing my ideas and concepts through solid handwork and photography alone. This mainly involves experimenting with light and different materials. The big challenge is to create a balance between all the elements of a composition in order to touch the beholder visually and emotionally.
