Fine art photographer Troy Ziel’s body of work is, for the most part, about finding that special calm and simplicity among chaos. Before capturing an image, Ziel becomes “still”, and connects with his subject; achieving absolute presence. Troy often refers to a famous quote by photographer, Minor White, when shooting: “Be still with yourself, until the object of your attention affirms your presence.” Ziel is a pro photographer with an ever- growing body of work that appeals to collector-quality, fine art photography buyers, Interior Design professionals, corporate art buyers, and home owners with a taste for high-end, contemporary design. The film is processed by the artist in the darkroom by hand. Images are drum scanned for the highest resolution possible and then printed on Fujicolor Crystal Archive Pearl Paper. Pearl-like crystals give silver halide prints a specific luster, creating a distinctive pearl-like appearance which produces a beautiful luster look.
