The Timeless Waters – Photography by Vassilis Tangoulis

The incredible minimalist work of Vassilis Tangoulis is easily recognizable as being the work of a true artist. His outstanding talent of blending long exposures with an intense tonal range makes for a visual journey that engages the imagination. The ability to instantly transport his audience from their reality is quite a feat for a photographer, and Vassilis executes it perfectly with his outstanding portfolio.
