Perfect Harmony
I was listing to music and going through my six years of work, when I came across this image. It was one of those days where you feel like the universe is working against you. I had been working on my seasonal gallery all day with my designer and nothing was flowing. This image has everything that inspires me; the ocean, the breeze, the moment, the smell and most importantly, the sound of the stream working perfectly with the subtle ocean waves. This image reflects perfect harmony. It inspired me and helped me find perspective on a challenging day. I hope it does the same for you. Click here to view the full image:
Upcoming Events:
- Nov 15th – Dec 31st the Seasonal Gallery will be open. Located on the 2nd level, next to Greenberg Diamonds and across from Pac Sun. The gallery is coming along nicely. I’m very excited to be opening it soon.
Thank you for being a part of my journey!
If you’re in Omaha, please stop by the gallery to support this (SOB) South Omaha Boy.
Dream come true
A dream is becoming a reality. I have reached an agreement with the Westroads Mall in Omaha to do a trial gallery from November 15th to December 31st.
Exploring color
We all love spring, right? Spring means better weather, outdoor activites and beautiful color. For a couple weeks Nebraska lights up with yellow wildflowers, purple and white trees. I find myself more and more looking at what’s in front of me and making it my own. The technique is placing your camera on a tripod , slow down the shutter speed and zoom in and out during the shot. Just like all long exposure shots you never know what you are going to get.
landscape photography formula
Image taken around Monterey and won’t make the cut.
I have been photographing for 7 years now and by default there’s a pattern with all of my gallery images. If an image is going to make the cut it must have at least 4 of the 8 criteria’s shown below. Sometimes that’s not enough either.
Scott Papek’s Gallery Image Formula.
- Color
- Symmetry
- Shapes
- Movement
- Painting
- Vanish Point
- Abstract
- zen

Sometimes all you have to do is look down to find art. This image is from San Diego California near imperial beach.
Hidden Treasure
The ocean is a mystery!The ocean is a surprise! The ocean is a place to sort thoughts! The ocean is beautiful! The ocean is never ending! The ocean is peaceful! The ocean is dangerous!
