Crossing the Measure of Light

A solitary figure moves through an architectural space divided by light and shadow. The geometry remains fixed while the human presence passes briefly through it, emphasizing scale, restraint, and transience. The photograph explores how light shapes experience more than the subject itself.

About Artist

David Payne

Dedicated to the world of Black and White Film Photography using the Canon EOS-1N, EF 85 mm f1.8 and EF 35mm f2 as my tools of choice. An enthusiast Photographer retired from the corporate world and on a Photography Journey to discover what artistic streams lie hidden within my depths. I'm disabled, using a walker to get out and around for my Photography Walks...but that doesn't stop me from getting out to chase Light, Shadows, Shapes & Textures wherever I can find them đŸ“·đŸ–€đŸ˜Žâ€Œïž
