About "Storm's River Bridge"

The Storm's River Bridge, over the Storm's River Gorge, not only remains a magnificent work of engineering after all its years in existence (completed in 1958), but is also a truly beautiful work of structural art.

I wanted to emphasise the curve and shape of the bridge. I found that the sepia tone did not only that, but also gave the image an air of age that I felt fit the bridge and the image perfectly.

About Robin

Robin Bownes

Robin is an Artist with SouthAfricanArtists.com based in South Africa.

Photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My father has a photograph of me, at age 3, taking a photograph of him. In high school I discovered that photography and a camera confidently wielded, provided access to people & places that might otherwise have been out of reach.

However, what fascinated me from the very beginning, was that I could capture moments in time, manipulate them, and turn them into art. Digital photography and editing has of course opened previously unimagined possibilities in this regard. The digital age has forever changed what it means to be a photographer. Photography now includes not only 'pure' photographic images, straight from the camera, but also digital imaging art, using photographs as a starting point and framework for new artistic, photographic possibilities.

I believe that photography is art if it is treated as such. I believe that art requires constant experimentation, learning and pushing of boundaries. I believe that creativity and its appreciation is a basic function of humanity. I don't believe in limiting myself to any one style or aspect of my art.
