AnthonyGhigliaPrints.com Adds Three New Images

I am happy to announce that I have added three new images to my prints website. The first image, titled Green Almond, was captured while on a trip to Southern Nicaragua in July of 2008. The water color in this area of Central America is much more green than neighboring Costa Rica to the south. The sunset this evening offered beautiful color contrast to the lingering storm which would arrive that night. As the light filtered through the backs of these almond barrels, a kaleidoscopic display of green luminance filled their interior. Surfer Magazine ran this image as a double-page spread in their most recent photo annual.

En Fuego was taken on a strong Santa Ana day in Southern California's Imperial Beach. When I arrived in the morning the waves were rather small and the wind was gusting over twenty-five miles per hour. I decided to wait for the tide change in hopes the waves would show a bit more sign of life. About an hour later the swell really started filtering in, as did the wind. Now blowing at a steady thirty miles per hour with stronger gust, I shot a series of lineups literally two miles from the Tijuana bullring. A fire had broke out in the hills above the bullring and was spreading fast, as is common with this type of dry forceful wind. As the smoke from the fire filled the sky, I captured this final image of a perfectly groomed empty left hander marching to shore.

This last image, Untracked Faces, is of Cardiff Reef on a cold early winter morning. It was added at the request of someone who saw it in Surfer Magazine. If there are any images of mine which you would like me to add to the gallery please feel free to email me. I will gladly accommodate.
