San Marino

Spring, summer and fall in a park in the suburbs of Los Angeles, California. An escape deep into nature, through ultra close ups.

At a park in San Marino, California, I retreat to nature, creating my own world by capturing it as close as I can get with my lens, transforming and softening the landscape into shapes and colors. Returning to the same location at morning, noon, and night over spring, summer, and fall, I witness the growth of roses and leaves, and the light and color of the landscape change and mutate. Capturing the same landscape over and over reveals previously unseen details. I've long had an interest in photographic deep dives of places, in psychogeography, and mapping places that have a special energy. I was inspired by the sheer beauty of the landscape to dissolve and abstract it to create a new perception.
