Piece description from the artist
Anyone can look at a cactus and know it can be a bit painful if you get too close. I simply had to get up close and personal. What I came up with is a truly macro shot revealing the surface of a cactus pad at eye level. What fascinates me is that with each spike the needles, or toothpicks, push through on only one small area defining the Ying/Yang of this world.
David Gibides is a professional fine art photographer who brings people hope. With over 15,000 hours in the field and studio, he transports people to a place of love, joy, peace, and hope – pixel by pixel. He shares God’s creation Up Close and Personal. Mostly self-taught, David has perfected the use of composition, light, and color, with shallow depth of field, which brings his audience closer to the Creator, into His world. The exquisite beauty and detail revealed are something they might never have experienced otherwise. Presenting the photos in an oversized format as he does, one can’t help but stop and be awestruck at what they see before them. They are images that touch the soul. Ultimately, David wishes to adorn the lobbies, and walls of health care centers, doctors offices and more to spread hope, joy, peace and love.
