Endless limits

This is a beautiful shot taken by one of my long time best friends, Brian Martinson (BDM Photography). Even though there are elements of symmetrical balance in the trick by Nick Dunne on the motorcylce, I believe the shot itself shows more asymmetrical balance. The shot isn't perfectly centered and to me creates a sense of movement across the photo. The placement of the sun, bike, and distant clouds gives a mood of excitement and amusement, despite the dangerous action occurring in the shot! Good stuff Brian.

Diamond In The Rough

This is a picture I shot over on the Northern California Coast. I enjoy the contrasts of texture in this picture. The smooth feel of the shell berried and surrounded by the grainy sand. The other contrast I really like is the comparison of the waves of sand vs the waves of the ocean. Typically we depict the ocean as being vast and wide, with waves of constant movement, where as in this picture it seems as if the waves of the beach continue to the edge of sight. Imagine the shell like a boat on water looking aimlessly to the horizon for the shore and destination.
