Silky Sunrise by

Sorrento piers at dawn on a Saturday morning. The Ferry went past and the ripples unsettles all the boats either side of this pier but by the time it had gone the best of the light was also gone. A slight change in white balance and I had my image…

About Alistair Wilson

Photography for me is an outlet, a way I can express myself through images rather than words. I look at the subjects I shoot from every possible angle that I can imagine and with the right light, the vision in my head becomes a reality. My passion for it began after high school and over the past several years it has become my release, my way of seeing from a different perspective..
