Through the Concrete Forest is an illustration of my love and passion for exploring the world and the excitement that can be found in so many places. In particular, this idea began when I first started experimenting with street photography. I began teaching myself how to use a camera, and as I started to improve the speed with which I could take high quality photos, I fell in love with exploring the many cities across the South. The rush I felt from surveying the busy city streets for potential photographs was incredible.
This piece attempts to capture that feeling.
