This beautiful photograph is part of the "Water Geomaids" series which consists of 13 different images. It comes signed and numbered and is part of an edition of 12.

Looking past the obvious and focusing on the lesser-known perspective introduces a parallel universe. Through using domestic objects and the human form in our environment, I work to orchestrate unique visions that are meticulously balanced in the ultimate pursuit of equilibrium. My goal is to inspire all those who see my work to begin looking at the world around them in a new way, evolving their view to uncover the undiscovered beauty in everyday things. color photography staged photography seascape photography pool photography
