My name is Estelle and I am Starsphinx.
I am a mother of 4 boys (grown men now) and in my early 30s developed long term health issues that resulted in my life taking a different direction. I started to spend more time engaging my creative side as well as learning technology and digital tools.
I developed an interest in photography, enjoying both the artistic expression and technical precision that is found in the craft. Over time, I learned more about using post-processing techniques to enhance and bring out the best in the photos I take. I then started to explore more into image manipulation, taking a photograph and changing it into something other, something that does not appear to be a photograph at all.
I am now showcasing a range of photography based work from straight forward image capture to imagined scenes that never existed appearing to originate in more traditional media. All the work on this site starts with my own photography.
