Mystery Creates Interest with Hank Erdmann

A quality I strive to include in my imagery is a sense of mystery.  The unanswered question is a powerful source of interest.  Mystery can be created in many ways.  But all mystery in a photograph is the un-answered question posed by some element or elements in the image.  The answer however is only what the imagination of the viewer suggests and then often only in a subliminal manner. The “answer” is a perception, and a different perception for each viewer of the image as well as for the artist.

Hank Erdmann-
My photographs are an expression of excitement and joy at seeing a fleeting moment when nature takes light and through color, form, line and texture and creates an image that leaves a lasting impression in my mind.  Occasionally, I’m fortunate to record such images. I am constantly expanding on the “art of fixing a shadow” with over forty years of photographic exploration.  Hank Erdmann is an artist, a professional natural history photographer and photographic educator who resides in Will County, Illinois.  He has photographed throughout North America, making the Midwest his primary geographic area of interest.
