This photograph immerses you in the breathtaking depths of a forest in the Azores, where nature can be admired in all its grandeur. The image is dominated by tall, slender trees stretching towards the sky, their trunks covered with a thick, soft blanket of bright green moss. A striking detail is the broken-off tree trunk in the middle, which naturally creates an opening and allows light to break through from above, creating an almost magical glow. The variation in height and thickness of the trees contributes to a sense of endless depth and tranquillity.
My inspiration for this work comes from the overwhelming silence and imposing vertical lines found in this kind of forest. It felt like entering a natural cathedral, where the trees are the pillars and the canopy is the ceiling. I wanted to capture the atmosphere of awe and wonder, taking the viewer into this serene and powerful place.
The atmosphere I am trying to capture is one of deep calm and pure, unadulterated force of nature. It feels cool and fresh, as if you can breathe in the pure forest air. For me, this image symbolises resilience and nature's constant cycle of growth and decay. It is a reminder of the greatness we are part of.
This photo print brings a piece of pristine nature into the home and is ideal for lovers of landscape photography, natural architecture and interiors that benefit from a sense of space and serenity. It is a timeless work that exudes calm and offers a window into the majestic beauty of the forest.
