In this presentation, Kai Hornung explores how ambiguity and emotional resonance can bring greater depth to nature photography. Inspired by Minor White’s idea to “photograph for what else it is,” he shows how moving beyond literal representation opens space for interpretation and dialogue. Instead of merely depicting what lies before the lens, images become invitations — evoking feeling, memory, or imagination in the viewer.

Kai will share how slowing down and seeking meaning in your photography transforms the act of photographing — turning it into a more personal, fulfilling connection with both nature and one’s own creative voice.
