Photobloggers Exposed: Georgia on My Mind - Page 2

Sebastian discovered photography when shopping for a Christmas gift for his sister four years ago.  He purchased a camera for her, and fell in love with it himself.  Since then, and several cameras later, Sebastian has been exploring his world through images.  Photoblogging was the natural progression for this burgeoning photographer who felt that displaying his artwork would help to complete the image-making process.

Sebastian prefers to shoot the solitary corners, the isolated spaces that inhabit his world.  He seeks out the quiet spots unknown or overlooked by many.   

I photograph to learn, I enjoy the discovery process and learning how to see. My goal is to make what we see in our ordinary lives more beautiful. The hint at something greater just underneath; the feeling of being on the verge of a new discovery.

And it’s this emotive quality that sets Sebastian apart.  His images, from the sloping landscapes to the pensive still lifes, are full of passion and feeling, and reflect the forethought and careful planning that goes into each and every photograph. 

Working in network operations for a large cell phone company, the soon-to-be-married father of an energetic six-year-old hopes to one day be able to make a living through his art.  Some of his work can be found at the Composition Gallery in Atlanta, where prints can be purchased. 

Another Atlanta resident, Otto Kitchens has been photographing since high school.  After university, Otto began to take his photography more seriously while documenting his many travels.  Otto’s photoblog, Lenscape: OttoK Photography, reads almost like a travel journal, from the dramatic landscapes of Ireland and Scotland, to the warm and moving landscapes of the American South, to simple stills and scenes of the world around him.  We are taken on a trip through Otto’s lens.
