Based in the bucolic central California coast, Maz Ghani focuses on nature photography and frequently experiments with new techniques. He looks for unusual perspectives and enjoys both black and white and color photography which is a natural extension of his work as a Radiologist. His fascination with the beauty of nature is reflected in the diversity of his work. Occasionally Maz will diverge and explore more abstract concepts including architecture and design. "A fleeting moment captured for eternity."
