First Light

• Photographer
  Anne Nielsen

The intent of this series is to raise awareness and concern about the rising sea level in the Chesapeake Bay. The photographs were made on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, USA. None of the images have been altered except for, in some cases, a change of contrast.. While some of the images border on fantasy they underscore the seriousness of the changes that ocurred over the space of one year.

I work in some alternative processes: Wet Plate collodion,Platinum, as well as digital. My interest is in the countryside that surrounds me.
