This series of images entitled 'Half Light' represent fine artist Jurgen Beullens' unmistakable photographic style: desaturated, serene, and often with a focus on the horizon.
The long exposure times used help to create a sense of calm and simplicity. There is no fuss, no excess, just focus.
The focus on the sea has a lot to do with Beullens' commentary on the pace of the 21st century. Rather than shooting bustling urban environments, his photography centres on space, time and peace. For his collection, he asks the viewer to 'feel the silence', and we completely understand where he's coming from
"Together we run through life. [...] give me the sea to escape this hellish rhythm: a sea of time, lots of space, a sea of tranquility. With the selection of the photos I want to set out to sea. Away from the crowds."
