We are very pleased to have Carl appearing as our guest here at aamora. His work is much admired by his fellow photographers. His images are like music, and his voice is strong and resonant. Enjoy the slideshow above as an introduction to his work. Then check out more of his powerful photographs at jpgmag.com and at redbubble.

A native of New York State, Carl W. Nunn has spent many years in the film, photography and visual image industry. Carl began taking pictures as a teenager and later studied photography at the Center for the Media Arts. He spent more than a decade working in films. His film experience helped develop his unique frame of reference and respect for the placement and positioning of objects. “Nunn’s work is captivating and inspiring” says Janifer Wilson, owner of Sisters Uptown Bookstore LLC in Harlem, New York. We agree.

A few months back we asked aamora members to join in a project called 23 hours. The premise of the project was to cease all verbal communication for 23 hours (continuously) and photograph absolutely anything you are thinking, feeling or seeing during the 23 hours of silence.

Below are the words and images of Claudia Luthi’s 23 hours.
