Gozo Island Textures

In the island of Gozo, sitting just north of the Maltese archipelago, I found myself surrounded by vast landscapes with alien-like patterns and textures shaped and sculpted by the wind and sea over millions of years. As I set out for solo walks at dawn or dusk to avoid the Mediterranean heat, I found myself fully immersed in the often deserted landscape and hunting for details and textures in the yellow sandstone, coral reefs and hidden coves and beaches.

It was a nice change of scenery from the often chaotic urban landscapes I’m used to. I can’t wait to return and explore more of what this island has to offer.

Colors and Contrasts in Athens

I recently spent a few days in Athens and wanted to try to capture some of the city’s vibrant urban landscapes and energy.

Although open to all photographic opportunities around me, I always like to go out with a a specific intent when shooting as to not get overwhelmed. In the case of photographing Athens I decided to approach the city with a focus on color and contrast while exploring side streets and the ancient ruins. I was looking for strong characters and contrasting dark shadows and I was blessed with crisp blue skies so that played into the color aspect of a lot of the images captured there.
