COASTAL CALM

Simple minimalist images have a sense of serenity that I love, and this works so well with seascapes. When I make calm seascapes I often use a long exposure and limited colour palette to create what I'm looking for. Making these images takes time because I sit, observe and set my camera up in a very deliberate way. This slows me down so I can enjoy being there to create a photograph that I hope others will enjoy as much as I do.
