Piece description from the artist
The Toblacher See, a quiet lake in the UNESCO World Heritage site of the Dolomites, sits near the border of South Tyrol.
In this piece, I wanted to capture how the sharp and strong mountains are softened by the omnipresent low clouds. The water was still, reflecting the peaks and trees like a mirror. The deciduous trees along the shore are touched by autumn, while the evergreens remain deep green.
The Dolomites are rugged country. Their cliffs and valleys are wild and full of stories. Toblacher See is a place of calm amidst all that roughness. The light changes fast here, and the mist clings to the hills. It’s the kind of place you stand and take it all in, knowing you won’t forget it.
Toblacher, Südtirol, Italy
Currently located in Washington, DC, Scott is a native Floridian photographer specializing in landscape photography. His work explores the interplay of light and dark — rejecting the notion that photography is just “painting with light.” He seeks what resides in the contrast — the liminal spaces of the world.
Scott has shot in some of the most beautiful locations in the world, including Iceland and locations throughout the Old World. But some of his most inspiring locations are right at home in America's enchanting National Parks.
