'Naked Island' is a piece I captured on the islands of Siargao in the Philippines in 2019. I visited this sand bar one afternoon just before sunset, and was totally blown away with how 'naked' the island felt, with no shade or shelter but only surreal patch of pure white sand surrounded by crystal clear shallow waters. The juxtaposition between the sand, the long sharp shadows framed by boats and the clearest blue waters really appealed to me and I knew I wanted to capture that isolated 'naked' feel to this place in the most unique way possible. This is a shot that took time to bring to life but one that has helped stretch my creative boundaries as an artist and a piece I am incredibly proud to have created. 8206 × 10260 The winning bid will receive a 24x30" framed print.
