Zeus
I used various elements of design to create an optical illusion of the Greek god Zeus lightning bolt.
In ancient Greek religion, Zeus was the chief deity of the pantheon, a sky and weather god who was identical with the Roman god Jupiter. He was regarded as the sender of thunder and lightning, rain, and winds, and his traditional weapon was the thunderbolt. He was often referred to as the “Father of Gods and men".
My motivation and what compels me to create is a strong passion for photography as a medium of expression. I have a strong desire to always create better images and work consciously to further develop as a photographer.

As the light catches the water it creates a glowing, fiery phenomenon.I used various elements of design to create an optical illusion of the Greek god Zeus lightning bolt.
