Description Title: 'ABSTRACT LIGHT STREAKS #116, Edit B.'Creation Date: 16 April 2016.'ABSTRACT LIGHT STREAKS' SERIES.Series Years: 2015 - 2016.SERIES DESCRIPTION:This is a collection of nighttime, time-exposure, light streak photography. There is something about nighttime photography that I really like: it allows me to make light fluid and I can make it twist and turn however I wish to get the effect I want. There are some happy accidents too with this kind of photography.

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.
