entry description
"Ideality" is a series of architectural photos of the Agora, Velodrome and Katehaki Bridge that were envisioned and realized by Santiago Calatrava, world-renowned architect, for the 2004 Olympics in Athens. I wanted to capture the simple sophistication and splendour of these masterpieces in my own way using archistract and archipano compositions while utilizing long exposure and conventional techniques to capture the essence, spirit, and my ideal vision of this setting as a photographer.about the photographer
