A minimalist black-and-white long-exposure photo of a slanted rebar (reinforcing bar) sticking out of the water just off the shore of the corniche in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. The original capture is a 4-minute exposure captured in the morning using 16 stops of neutral-density (ND) filters (10-stop and 6-stop stacked). The final result is a combination of multiple B&W versions of the original capture.

About author:

An international award-winning hobbyist fine art B&W photographer who often seeks the abstract and the minimal in architecture and seascapes using daytime long exposures.

I am a Syrian expatriate of Circassian descent currently living and working in Saudi Arabia. At the end of 2014 and at around the age of 30, I picked up a new hobby: photography, and so far I haven't let go.

In the beginning, I explored portrait and landscape photography, but I always found myself generally gravitating toward the abstract and the minimal. That's why I'm currently focusing on black-and-white fine-art photography, and particularity the application of long-exposure and advanced B&W processing techniques to architectural and seascape photography.
