  • Most photographers have one recognizable style they apply to varied subjects throughout their lives. Conversely, Craig Blacklock, has devoted his life’s work to depicting the interface of land and water in wilderness areas, specifically, Lake Superior, where he is constantly exploring new ways to express our relationship with the natural world. For his latest project, Light Waves, Blacklock travelled by kayak gathering images that unlock a portal into an astonishing universe where light dances with water,  creating the illusion of three-dimensional objects and spaces.
