Adam Monk
AUSTRALIAN LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHER
With a combined love of the native Australian bush and photography spanning over 25 years, Adam Monk is firmly established as one of Australia’s most inspired landscape photographers..
Adam’s gallery located at 62 High Street, Fremantle Western Australia , showcases his collection of stunning panoramic images that capture the majesty of the Australian landscape.
“I don’t create the scenes I photograph, I simply record them. My job is to be able to see the infinite of nature and translate it to the finite of a photograph, whilst still transmitting the splendour of the original. To create a window out of a fragment that contains the essence of the whole.”
Each carefully composed image pays respect to the colours and quality of light present in Australia’s natural environment.
You need patience and endurance to record that special light. Adam often waits hours, sometimes days, for the right conditions, spending months each year travelling the back roads and dirt tracks of Australia.
Born and raised in Fremantle, Adam has lived abroad and travelled extensively both within Australia and across Europe, USA, Central & South America. Drawing inspiration from these travels, Adam has experienced and photographed some of the most extraordinary places in the world.
“I think the real art of landscape photography, is how to capture that essence and distil it into a single image that conveys the feeling of actually being there”.
We invite you to share Adam’s vision by visiting the gallery in Fremantle. or by viewing the extensive on-line catalogue of images. You’ll be sure to find a window to the natural world that you’ll want to hang on your wall.
