Description THINGS MOST PEOPLE DO NOT PAY ANY ATTENTION TO, IMAGE DESCRIPTION Title: THINGS MOST PEOPLE DO NOT PAY ANY ATTENTION TO : Dragon, 14 March 2016What is it? A dragon figure at a Penang Taoist temple.Series: THINGS MOST PEOPLE DO NOT PAY ANY ATTENTION TO.Series Years: 2015 to Present.Style: ENVIRONMENTAL STILL LIFE Photography.Study Of: 'THINGS MOST PEOPLE DO NOT PAY ANY ATTENTION TO' along the streets of Penang. These may be mundane, old, and decaying elements, or things thrown away on the street that happen to land and sit in a particular way that becomes an interesting scene to me. This is a somewhat macroscopic, environmental still life photography perspective where the parts of the subjects, the form, the texture, the color, and the design, are the main subjects in the images...the objects in the photos lend a hand to the over all structure of the images but don't tell the whole story of what I find interesting in the photographs.Copyright 2016 Nawfal Johnson Nur.All Rights Reserved.Penang, Malaysia.

Nawfal Johnson, Malaysia Member Since September 2006 Artist Statement IMAGEKIND: ARTIST BIO — Nawfal Johnson — Smokephotographist Beginnings: When I pick up my camera ... when I compose the subjects in the frame ... and, when I plan and set up my lighting, I have one thing in mind — To take a better photograph than the last time.
I have been using a camera as a hobbyist since I was 12 years old, and then as a freelance professional since 1998.
Photography is a Madness for Me — My Work: I have been a long-time Freelance Stage & Dance Photographer; nevertheless, I focus much of my energy designing fine art Abstract, and, Abstract Expressionism Photography. I also design SMOKE-ART PHOTOGRAPHY, and that is the art style I focused on in my 2011 book, titled, ETHEREAL DREAMS and HOPE.
My Artistic Influences: My main artistic influences are Jackson Pollock and Robert Henri. As for photographic influences, I have always drawn inspiration from photographers Carl Fischer, and Andreas Feininger.
