Ellen Yeiser is a notable rising star who uses photography to illustrate the delicate and abstract beauty of nature.

“Photography has brought me on a long and interesting journey. As a lifetime naturalist and outdoor enthusiast, photography allows me to express my love of nature.

By simplifying a landscape to its basic elements, I can explore the inherent power of nature’s intimate spaces. The abstract forms become representative of the macro landscape and suggest varied meanings. The viewer is allowed to assign their own interpretations to the images, resulting in infinite meanings based on the myriad experiences of each individual.”
