Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting
Sometimes just a spot of color can make a good picture amazing. “Even In the Rain You Can See the Colors” is just that sort of picture. The picture itself is good with beautiful clouds, that lovely line of trees and their reflections, the adorable elephants with the umbrella. But Jaguar Black did not just make it black and white. He left that splash of red and amplified everything.

“In the Silence” is an excellent example of using a leading line to draw a person into the picture. I also love how it is backlit by the sun so everything is in silhouette.
“When it fogs up, glass makes the landscape which I like the most” is awash in sunlight. I love how much he uses lighting to set the mood and create a real sense of place. His landscapes remind me of on of my favorite writers, Wallace Stegner, who in “The Sense of Place” wrote about how a place becomes a place because we give it attention. “No place, not even a wild place, is a place until it has had that human attention that at its highest reach we will call poetry.”
Jaguar Black does more than landscapes. He has some fabulous pics of himself, but I was most moved by his landscape photography. That’s why you should follow him, landscapes and great personal pictures, too.
