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.

Stairway



Spiral stairways are always a good subject for photography and this one really caught my eye. My eye settled nicely on the chandelier and then wandered nicely through the image and up to the stairs in the corner. I found the black and white conversion to much better in showing off the details of the image.
