Piece description from the artist
Part of my New York City series. A small patch of green holding on in winter in Central Park. I remember there were several sparrows and songbirds fluttering about in this small patch. After chasing the birds for a bit I got bored of failure and decided to capture this less mobile subject. I captured this using a shallow depth of field, keeping the urban bits at bay. Allowing the buildings to bask in the background, creating a good juxtaposition between nature and man.
A.D. Wheeler is a self-taught photographer who loves to push boundaries with his camera and his post-processing techniques. Andrew focuses primarily on landscape and what he coins, “abandonscape,” fine art photography. His term, “Abandonscape,” refers to the art of photographing abandoned buildings and sites of ruin and decay.
In 2012 Andrew's photo "Spinning Fire" won in the settings category for the Ron Howard and Canon Imaging's Project Imaginat10n. Andrew was also featured as a "Rising Star" on National PBS that syndicated across the US.
During the fair weather month's Andrew tours up and down the east coast with his multi-award winning "Abandonscape" prints on metal at various art shows and festivals.
