Endless Solitude

Isan S.

  • I was on a family trip to Utah this past spring when we came across the Bonneville salt flats. We had just driven 8 hours to get here and all of us tired of looking at our screens needed a break from the car. I grabbed my medium format film camera and a roll of 120mm film, scrambling to load the film, as my family started walking out into the expansive salt flats. The salt flats had a thin layer of water that day and I wanted to capture the mirror like quality of the environment along with the vastness of the flats. I asked my younger brother to pose and he instinctively looked out at the mountains. I wanted the photo to have a dreamier look so I overexposed the shot by a stop. I love how surreal the photo looks especially with the dried salt caking his legs.

  • Creativity to me is finding new perspectives to capture the world.
