Dimitry Evdokimov is a Russian photographer that based in Saint Petersburg - Russia's cultural centre. Saint Petersburg us widely known for it's beautiful architecture and for bordering the Baltic Sea. His screen name is known as F0rm and v0id and he can be found on Flickr.
In this image the sun is high in the sky in front of a few long strains of grass, both strong symbols of life. The low F-stop creates a focus on the plant where the leaves meet the sun, and this creates a hazy effect on the viewer that is reminiscent of sterotypical childhood memories of running through tall grass. I like this image due to the intimate effect created by the sunshine and low F-stop.
The image above is overloaded with crimson and the dead tree stands out like a broken bone. The only other colour in the image is the golden fields in the far background, this creates an all encompasing feeling of being present in the scene which is conveyed to the viewer.
I like this image as the lighting in this shot as the sunlight is framed as though it has fallen to the forest floor. Similarly to the previous photograph he has used a low F-stop which create an intense focus on the small patch of wildflowers where the sunlight hit. The effect of this focus on the viewer is that is creates a feeling of transitioning. It is almost as though something is about to happen and the cameras focus will shift onto an event however, due to this being a still shot there is only this sense of expectation and not the follow through.
