Turns out Danny Fuller isn’t simply a handsome man with nice abs and a penchant for dropping in way deep on really big waves. No, he’s an artist, too. And, though we apologize in advance for sounding surprised, his photos are compelling. We’re mentioning this because Fuller has a show opening tomorrow, Saturday, May 21, 2011 at the Known Gallery in Los Angeles titled Night For Day.
Fuller shot the photographs for his Night for Day body of work between midnight and 5 am during the brightest full moon at waters edge in Hawaii and Mexico. Fuller’s long night time exposures capture the hauntingly beautiful locations such as “Insanities,” “Keiki’s,” “Three tables,” “Hanakapi’ai,” “Monster Mush,” and “Playa Las Viudas.” The choices of these spots were based on the predicted effects that the tones of the sand and the clarity and depths of water would have on the eventual exposure to moonlight.
The opening reception begins at 8 PM. The Known Gallery is located at 441 N. Fairfax Ave., Los Angeles, CA. Night For Day which includes work by Kevin Ancell runs through June 11, 2011. Follow the jump for a video interview with Fuller regarding the show (or click here for photos from the opening.
