summary

Introduce briefly

Chris Friel is a British photographer known for his abstract landscape images. He started his photography journey in 2006 after being a painter for many years [3]. Friel's work often blurs the boundary between photography and painting, creating a unique and artistic look [2].

Photography Style and Techniques:

Friel's photographic vision leans towards interpretative rather than representational images [1].

He primarily uses intentional camera movement techniques to capture his photos, which adds an element of unpredictability to the process [1].

Friel mainly focuses on landscapes and seascapes, although he has also experimented with photographing people [1].

His preferred equipment includes a Canon EOS 5D Mark II camera, a 45mm tilt-shift lens or a 50mm prime lens, a neutral density graduated filter, and a polarizer [1].

Friel's compositions tend to be simple, as he believes that overly complicated compositions can make it difficult to visualize the image [1].

When editing his photos, he looks for elements that are sharp or recognizable and ensures that the composition works [1].

Influences and Recognition:

Friel's background as a painter has influenced his approach to photography [1].

Some of his favorite photographers include Alexey Titarenko, Keith Carter, and Mark Yankus [1].

Friel has received awards and recognition for his intentional camera movement images, with one of his photos winning an award in a national photographic competition [1].
