Winter Vibes, Jakob Stickle, 2020
When I first began this project, I really took an interest in the work of Alice Zilberg. The reason being was her use of lighting and the way she is able to blend light and dark as well as her use of a focal point. Because of my interest in her work, I really wanted to try using different lighting techniques using a focal point and surrounding objects, like the tree, to catch people's attention.
After working on my image, and seeing the results of my work, I would like people to just think about how, even though we are going through a pandemic, there are still a lot of beautiful things all around us every day that we take for granted. The trees, the sunset, the snow, for example. I also hope that people find this picture calming because that is one of my favourite things about taking pictures like this.
