Morning Mist
I shot these pictures with a cheap plastic toy camera Holga on Ilford HP5+ film. Very appropriate tools for the occasion.
Inspired by the interplay of light, nature, and humanity, Ari's work is a testament to simplicity. His minimalist approach strips away the unnecessary, leaving behind only space and atmosphere.
