Steven’s most recent creative composition endeavours to accentuate and make intimate the aesthetics of Australian topography. The uncanny synthesis of rock, soil and sea have created the most exquisite composite of landscape photography, consolidating texture, contour and colour seamlessly together as a painter’s brush strokes onto canvas. Each photo stands as an invitation to the observer to apprehend the profound beauty and mystery of Australia’s vast plains, arid deserts and salty seas.
