James Antonson's visual vocabulary primarily deals with water, sky, rocks and trees. His images can be seductive, capturing moments of pure tranquility, with a number of them harking back to the watery scenes of his childhood in Michigan and Minnesota. As a photographer he shoots the world around him almost daily, for reference, for ideas, capturing what he call "time's never ending melt."
