Photography allows me to connect with my spirit and the spirit of others.We are all made of energy and when we leave this earth,we leave behind energy transformed.That is what my photography is about...capturing energy in a souls work. My unique perspective stems from my background and experiences...the technical/mechanical aspects of my electrical work,my life in the city and the country and my spirituality. When I photograph an abandoned building,I can feel the energy of those who were there before me and I try to convey that in my work.And when I photograph a flower or a path or a beach,I can see a higher power at work and feel the transcendence of nature.The photos themselves blend texture,light and color to express the cycle of life-birth,death and rebirth with a spiritual perspective. Edward Sante Crestoni has been working in photography for over 30 years.He learned and developed a passion for photography in the Navy at the age of 19.After a hiatus of working as an electrical contractor,Ed seriously returned to photography approximately five years ago and has never looked back. Ed's primary focus has been on nature and abandoned structures-subject matter that meld his native Chicago heritage and his life in North Dakota before joining the Navy.His work with electronics and energy also influence his photography.Ed's eye for composition and detail and his vision of light create extraordinary images of common subjects.
