The photographer David Keochkerian first caught my attention when I saw his Infra Red photos, which are very unique. After looking at more of his photographs I liked him even more because his pictures seem dreamy, almost like another world, yet it depicts the earth’s beauty in such a creative manner. The picture I chose is called “Under the Milky Way” and it is one of my favorites form his portfolio. The first thing that caught my eye were the vibrant yet deep colors, and the continuous line created by the yellow trail and the milky way. Furthermore, it was the starry sky what made this picture my favorite. I have always been amazed by the immensity of the universe and fascinated by the fact that we all come from it. Makes me feel big, rather than small, like the universe is inside of me and you;  after all, we are all made of the same elements. My favorite part of the image though is that the artist combined to photographs two create this image. I am assuming that the land image was taken during the day since the shutter speed is only 12 seconds, although the lights in the house suggest that it was taken at night. The sky photo was definitely taken at night and has an ISO 4,000. Finally, I think this image represents me in a way; I often find that I have a duality to myself. Also, the combination just looks really awesome.
