HILDA CHAMPION
Alone in the Desert

A tiny little human at the right top edge of the dunes shows the scale of this vast expanse of sand dunes in the desert of Wahiba Sands, Oman. A storm is moving in and the dark clouds add drama to the scene. Light filtering through openings in the clouds illuminates the top of the dunes and emphasizes their curves.

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.
