-- Artist Notes --
'Flowing' is one of the most popular and most collected images in all of my collections and was used (without my permission) as the home screen for Amazon Fine Art for several years during their inception.
I have never seen patterns of corrosion more expressive than they are in Antelope Canyon especially when the midday sun hits the ancient sandy rock formations transforming them into vibrant yellow, orange, red and purple artistic expressions.
The place is absolutely magical and ethereal and when the sun hits the rocks they really come to life, telling their own unique story right in front of you creating a Flowing effect. Once the sun has gone though, the rocks return to a dull sandy color and formations go into hiding so timing and patience was crucial to capture this shot.
I wanted BIG so I shot this one using a favorite stitching technique of mine that I've developed over the years. This image is made up of about 10 different images captured as a vertical panorama then cropped into a regular size. The benefits of using this technique is that you get to see every fine detail, a greater color gamut and a much wider view of the subject compared with what your average camera can produce. This image has been a favorite for many of my collectors over the years and I have to admit it is one of my all time favs too.

Love your work! I Especially like you use of form, movement, color and texture. The compositions are also masterfully balanced, great Job! If you get a chance can you take a look at mine and be brutally honest with your opinion? I am trying to grow as an artist and would really respect your opinion! Thanks again in advance!
