Reflections, refractions, and rays produce a stunning display upon the sides and corner of this building. Catching multiple buildings reflecting their light brings astounding colors to the image; the reflections in parellel with the building produce a  greater perceived depth of field.

Standing as a flagship of Surrealism, ‘Waves of Remembrance’ is an out of perspective image of the Oculus building in New York City that represents the weight of the darkness in life and the light that grows from it. A stunning architectural piece that pays respect to a serious and resilient time in America’s modern history.

The blue sky represents our neural cortex. Almost infinite possibilities of connections, interactions, and it in itself is the host of our physical being. 

The background building of vertical patterns, acts as the correlation of the id and the ego. A largely subconscious part of our mind that balances our innate desires with a matured adapted behavior. 

The forefront vertical building plays a completely different role as the superego, in which it is also largely subconscious, but acts as our moral high ground. It lays in our subconscious dictating right from wrong, and acts as a guiding force between the id, the ego, and our conscious mind and outward acts. 

The perpendicular interception of the Superego building and the Ego/Id building illustrated our conscious mind between the layers of our persona.

The quintessential piece of Allinson Fine Art is ‘Buildings I.’ A raw image that creates questions of perception made to challenge how we analyze our environment. 

Each building stands on a separate street corner at perpendicular ends.

At one point only, do they all line up with each other in which they become seamless.

The seamless vantage point throws off your initial sense of perspective and you’re left wondering where these structures stand in 3 dimensional space.

When staring at the center point of the image you can change how you see the image by choosing to see the corner of the image angled inwards or then angled outwards.

The light that radiates out of us, comes from a place we aren’t connected with. Overlaps of the mind, of consciousness, make us like to believe we have a cohesive mind, but we all struggle with the perplexities and parallels that are the parts of our psyche. Neurological battles slow our minds down, as we become more disconnected from our true subconscious. Allow yourself to unwind your mind and let your subconscious flow free through your perception and logic, through your ego, as you study and take in the photograph of “Retrospective Ego”. The layered geometry and new perception of these three buildings will bring a meditative sense of letting go. The stunning and unique aesthetic will pair in your home very well with your unique persona, and each viewing of it, whether it be you, a friend, or a visitor, will incite new thoughts, ideas, emotions, and conversations.

Orographic Portrait [Horizontal] is a stunning piece that captures an environmental phenomena  that creates distinct psychological imagery.

Taken on the western Side of El Paso, Texas, this is a photo of the orographic effect; a change in atmospheric conditions due to mountain ranges or other elevation changes.

Gatherings turn into villages.
Villages develop neighborhoods of the village, which has now become a town.
Eventually, the town evolves into a city and more people are wanting to be apart of this societal environment.
The city stops building out and starts to build up. Lives living on top of other lives, creating towers and blocks of a thousand perceptions, hopes, dreams, and fears. Everyone of them different but ultimately trying to find the same thing in their own life. 

The physical location of this photograph is on the west side of Manhattan, New York, on the edge of the Hudson River. New York was a place where I really contemplated what it means to be physically apart of a society, to come together and live in such close proximity, bringing an immensely diverse unity to each neighborhood.
Scores of people and businesses supporting each other, in a plethora of different connected areas and neighborhoods. An effortless blend of life and getting on with what you need to. There is a huge sense of an on going drive for society while stacking their lives on top of each other. 
This photograph is a visual representation of the concept of these neighborhoods and areas of people ‘stacked’, living life together ‘differently’ in space-time, but ultimately with the same higher goal.
The strength of all beams, rivets, and welds is needed to hold together the structure it supports, just as people, businesses, and life is needed to hold together the structure it supports, society.

The Büren collection presents modern, architectural photography in a casual, inventive, and refined manner. City Waves represents a limitation in man’s ability to match nature in its composition and refinement. 

A building with an irregular, trapezoidal design boasts rows of frameless windows to emphasize the dramatic image. When observed from any other perspective, the angular ebbs and flows of the building is immediately obvious. Shooting from a point that takes out the rest of the perspective allows you to admire the building for it’s design. Starting at the central point in which the brick layer intersects the frameless windows behind and working your way outward, following the patterns across the space of the frame allows the mind to wander through the image.
