Image description

For the past few years, I have concentrated on abstracts. Recently, I spent a few days at La Jolla Cove photographing the sea lions. At first, I processed the images in color. But the more I looked at them, the more the lines and forms of these remarkable creatures stood out. Color became irrelevant, and black and white seemed to be the best medium to display the moods of these beautiful wild animals.

Because they are wild, they shouldn't be disturbed. The closest I ever came to any of them was around 25 or 30 yards, and many of them were more than 50 yards away.

Jared Christopher Martin I agree - good call - moves from semi snap to fine art. I admire animals they always sleep with such vivid intensity and innocence and sweetness. This is a treasure.
