I enjoy using a camera to translate my visualization into reality on paper. Visualization is defined as the ability to see in the "mind's eye" the finished work before actual application. It is the creative process of images transitioning from the realm of the reactive and contemplative to the conscious and deliberate. An element of surreal gives the viewer a different perspective on the subject, removing the literal and getting down to the essence of conveying the energy of the subject. For me, the image begins when the work goes beyond merely representing reality and enters the realm of personal expression. My methods are meant to be intentional, whether in the camera or post processing.

I love the creamy tulips in this image. Against all the different textures of the stone, brick and etched glass, the smooth tulips really stand out. Textures...so many and so varied. And the tulips are SO tall in their stone container. It all caught my eye as I walked by.
