The Wave

The Ocean is my playground. It's somewhere that I love to go and enjoy my spare time. The ocean is beautiful, and comes in so many different colours, it is also terrifying and furious. I particularly like this clean style where you only keep what is important. I tend to capture places devoid of human crowds or bulky details. Photographing the waves at sunset is something I particularly enjoy, especially when the wind comes from inland, it whips up froth and spray on the waves that reflects and diffuses the golden light. It's all about the light, choosing the best time of day to photograph the seaside is extremely important, as the intensity, direction and color of the light vary throughout the day. I analyze the weather and depending on the conditions I chose the spot where I'm going to shoot, As soon as I watch a wave, I subconsciously abstract it from its most basic elements. I chose a minimalist style because this style of photography only constrains the imagination, I also want my images to exude serenity. For me a photo is only beautiful if it provokes or gives off an emotion. I try to bring a sense of escape where the viewer finds himself alone in the face of the immensity of the landscapes available to him.
