ward winning photographer Jack Fusco started his work as a way to
document his travels throughout the United States and Europe but
it soon became his main form of creative expression. "Too often we pass by
natural beauty or fail to appreciate the things we are surrounded by every day.
Through my photography I hope to preserve what has been forgotten and
renew that which we have grown accustomed to," says the Toms River artist.
Fusco's work focuses on three main genres: astrophotography, black and white minimalism, and seascapes. Says Fusco, "I set out to capture specific emotions that I want to convey
with each image. I choose long exposures to not just capture a specific moment, but to convey
movements that help complete a vision. Whether it is stars that seem to streak across the
entire sky or a jetty that disappears into a colorless ocean, it is a view not seen by simply
looking through the camera."
Presented here are a selection Fusco's images, as well as comments by the artist, that
capture the enduring beauty of the Jersey Shore as rarely seen.
