David Leaser Announces His Acclaimed Nightflowers Photo Collection To Be Showcased In Nikon World Magazine

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) December 20, 2012

Award-winning photographer David Leaser reveals the secrets to his innovative fine art photography in Nikon Worlds latest issue, due to hit store shelves this week. In keeping with Nikon Worlds mission to inspire and educate amateur and professional photographers alike, the two-page spread features Leasers step-by-step macrophotography techniques for creating dramatic closeup images like the ones showcased in his acclaimed Nightflowers collection. Leaser also gives tips on selecting the best cameras, lenses and gadgets to suit anyones budget as well as how to use lighting and camera settings to their best advantage.

Leaser created a new dettagli technique in Nightflowers to show botanicals in a way theyve never been seen before. This series of bold, colorful flowers, enormously enlarged against a black backdrop, gives viewers a bees eye view so detailed that you can literally see the pollen glistening off the stamens.

Modern technology is changing the way we see things. By marrying Nikon with NASA, Ive developed a technique to show details that werent possible just a few years ago. I truly believe this artwork will forever change the way you look at flowers, Leaser says.

Critics are calling Leaser signature style revolutionary because of its astonishing detail, and his work been featured in leading magazines like Architectural Digest and Sunset and at landmark locations like the Trump Hotel in Hawaii. His work will also be featured at the famed Wynn Las Vegas Hotel in early 2013. Leaser was awarded a Silver Medal in the International Photography Awards amidst 80 submissions in 90 countries.

Architectural Digest says Leasers images glow with eye-popping color and pattern. Ann Landi, contributing editor for ARTNews, says, Leasers work seduces us as only an unforgettable work of art can, to look and look again. And John Mendelsohn of ArtNet writes, David Leasers Nightflowers, a series of striking photographs, confronts us with nature at its most flamboyant. In his images, this photographer creates fantastic, contemporary signs from natures own high style.

The Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens in Los Angeles developed an artist series around Leasers work, and 11 pieces are now in the museums permanent collection. Leasers work was juried to appear in Architectural Digests exclusive home design show exhibit. Sunset Magazine recognized Leasers work with its West at Its Best honor.

Leaser is a featured lecturer at botanical gardens and the author of four botanical books, including two acclaimed photographic essays.
