Piece description from the artist
Chicago is famous for the creepy, crawly, low-hanging fog at certain times of the year; usually a result of the pressure and temperatures coming off of the great Lake Michigan mixing with the trapped air & particles from the jungle of concrete and steel. With such vast & rapid temperature changes occurring in the city, we are presented with brilliant shows of city fog. I happened to gain access to a neighbor's (higher) rooftop on this fall morning and caught a brilliant display over Lincoln Park and into Downtown Chicago.
Ashland grew up in Southeast Virginia surrounded by lush rural landscapes, great protected swamp lands, national & state parks, the Chesapeake Bay, the Eastern Shore, the breathtaking Skyline Drive & Blue Ridge Mountains, and the inlets & oceans of Virginia & North Carolina.
It was this constant variation in natural beauty that first drew his eye to the camera; that, and the constant joy of capturing life's candid moments on film. Although no particular subject is banned from the lens of Ashland's camera, it is landscapes, cityscapes, wildlife, and nature that truly captures his heart.
"There's always more to see, more to learn, more to be wowed about-I just hope you enjoy what I see in the world."
A constant staple on the likes of Instagram, Flickr, and Facebook, Ashland currently resides in Chicago, Illinois, and looks forward to many more years of development, collaboration, creativity, world travel, and art.
