Title: Sunset City



Happy New Year! I got a little creative over the holidays.

I take a lot of photos. Often I'm just going about my daily business, I see interesting things & snap photos. The photos disappear into a digital pit of ten thousand other photos I've forgotten about over the years. Occasionally the forgotten surfaces as AI enhanced memories, courtesy of the omnipresent Google Gods. Occasionally inspiration follows. This piece is a composition of three separate elements visible in the Dartmouth & Halifax harbor area. I wanted to capture the tree, the moon & a distant spire. I brought the spire forward & improvised the attached structure. The other buildings are improvised as well. I enjoy composing memorable & iconic imagery that would normally be outside the total view of a traditional camera lens. I'm not looking to create something detached from reality, it's more like a slightly tweaked realistic dream state where what could be, exists. Each element is enhanced but not copied, I don't really "reference" the photos line by line per say. I take a brief look at each key element, put my pen to paper & let the flow engulf me. This original piece is for sale, if interested please contact me. Also, all comments welcome. The good, the bad & the ugly.
