Research: Per Bak Jensen

Per Bak Jensen is a landscape photographer from denmark. His photographs often connote a sense of emptiness, isolation this may be created by the mist captured in most of this photographs, or the level of lighting, quite dull often grey or blueish.

Tree is a misty forest. I love how in this photograph, the background is very soft, slightly blurred perhaps because of of the mist . I love how this allows you to look at the photograph as colours and patterns as opposed to what the objects actually are.

What i can only assume to be a large puddle in the middle of a flooded field. There is no reflection in the water, it is simply a white strip, due to the lighting conditions. I love how the top 50% of this picture is pure mist. Grey. You cannot see through it. And the bottom 50% green. Both dull colours. I love how there is also a smooth transition between the two across the centre of the photograph.

A lone rock in the sea. I love how this image is a lot sharper and bolder than the other two due to the lack of mist in front of the rock. But still it seems to connote the same emotions.
Apart from the shadow in front of the rock the sea is very much one colour. It doesn't shine, it doesn't move. Its very flat and matte, almost like paper. I love how the shadow does create a bit of texture though. You can see, just about, where the light hits either side of the front of the rock, and the slight ripple in the water. just in this small space. Giving a great sense of depth in an otherwise flat sea. The sky very much the same colour as the sea broken up by the horizon line. A very straight line a slightly darker shade of grey than the sky and the sea. The dullness of the background really makes the black glossy rock stand out.
