12) Dustin Adams and exposing film to different light

Dustin Adams is someone who I found through a YouTube video of a song and the picture for the video was one of his pieces.

I clicked the link to his flickr and was blown away by his work. Adams exposes his coloured film to different light and surfaces to create the effects on his photos.

I really like his work as it makes the images more abstract as the colours are

Another reason I like Dustin's work is due to the scenery and subjects of his photos. Dustin takes a lot of photos of breathtaking natural landscapes and usually never has more than one person in a shot. I like this as it can show a relation between the photographer and another person, but also emphasizes a sense of adventure and exploration in the shots which matches the setting of the images really well.
