Piece description from the artist
Detail of uniforms and legs of Honor Guard at tomb of unknowns in Arlington Cemetery. With this image I wanted to show something of the somber nature of the ceremony in Arlington Cemetery outside Washington DC without focusing on the specific soldiers taking part. This focus on the well pressed uniforms perhaps conveys more about the discipline around the Honor Guard that a broader more editorial image.
Steve Heap has been a photographer for over 50 years now (which is frightening to think about!) but in that time he has developed an eye for what would make a striking piece of wall art. Photography is all about the light and his finest attribute is patience! Waiting for the conditions to be just right is the key to making a piece of art that you can be proud of. Of course, luck plays a part, but without that patience of being in the right place at the right time, it just becomes a snapshot. He focuses on capturing images from around the world – timeless shots that reward the viewer with insights as they spend more time with them!
