Frank Relle's Photographic Exploration of Louisiana Swamps
New Orleans photographer Frank Relle documents Louisiana's swamplands in his series 'Until the Water.' Using canoes and artificial lighting, he captures cypress trees draped in Spanish moss during twilight hours. Relle describes the swamp as a transformative environment that connects him to a quieter, older way of being. His work aims to share this experience visually rather than through explanation. The photographs are available through his online shop and Royal Street gallery in New Orleans.
