Detached

The photo focuses on a forgotten structure encircled by the sea. The minimalist composition highlights its solitude. Through the lens the edifice assumes the qualities of an eremite, resisting the elements in seclusion. A long exposure was used smoothing out the waves - evoking a sense of serenity.

About Artist

Mario Tarantino

A professional photographer working mostly in black & white. My style ranges from, fine art architecture, fine art street to moody landscapes. The simplicity of monochromatic imagery, the rich, deep and detailed blacks coupled with crisp whites and all the tones in between, for me makes mundane, marvellous. I often use long exposures & enjoy working in low light creating low-key images which I find are more emotive.
