New York photographer David Benjamin Sherry, born 1981, does not use digital image processing on his pictures but analogue techniques. He  graduated from the Yale School of Art and went on to conjure up surreal new worlds with his art. While many of his early works capture in an alienated way the kind of adolescence associated with the films of Kenneth Anger, Sherry‘s latest photos are dedicated to the spiritual side of nature. His journey through the rough landscape of north-western USA led him to many places that exude a sense of the supernatural: craggy cliffs in the sunset or gnarled trees in the moonlight. David Benjamin Sherry altered the colours in these pictures in his darkroom until they expressed his feelings at the moment they were taken.
