In the Mangroves

A contemplative image of a fisherman inspecting his mangrove seedling.
This image was taken in Fujian province, China. This region is home to the world's largest seafood industry, the landscape is busy and bustling with fishing and farming equipment. Only when looking at smaller, isolated sections can the eye find peace and tranquility.

I use the camera as a tool to express ideas and emotions. Sometimes I record "reality", or perceived reality. My aspiration in photography is less about showing the world as it is, but rather to release the poetry of the ordinary and help people see the un-seen. I try to show an abstraction of what I see, free of distractions. My images are “based on a true fantasy”.
My preference is to photograph in nature. While I also do studio work with elaborated lighting setups, natural light still has the most flattering qualities. In addition, being out in nature is my elixir, my source of energy and replenishment.
