The Story: This was a very spontaneous shot taken on the Gower Peninsula in Wales. Mark was on a long early morning walk to take pictures of Whiteford Lighthouse when he came across this striking scene. It was totally unexpected which has resulted in an photograph that is both exciting and haunting. The decaying trees stood out in perfect contrast to their surroundings thanks to the low-lying mist. Mark loves the various layers of contrast in this shot.
Mark Z Alvarez, originally from East London, has made Cambridge his home for over twenty years and is an established member of its vibrant and thriving arts community.
Mark has always been passionate about the arts, whether it’s music, theatre, literature, painting or photography. He was in three operas at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, as a child. However, his primary passion has always been photography, with early influences being Ansell Adams, Robert Doisneau and Henri Cartier Bresson.
Discouraged from pursuing arts qualifications at school, Mark decided to become a professional photographer later in life. He is self taught and now exhibits in Cambridge and London.
Due to his love of travel Mark frequently enjoys discovering new, breathtaking and thought-provoking locations. Often, his subject matter is chosen and captured to provide a surreal and other-worldly atmosphere intended to stimulate the viewer's imagination.
Mark is also a management team member of Cambridge Open Studios, a prestigious organisation founded nearly fifty years ago that represents over five hundred artists and makers.
