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.

Dark and Light



 I didn't realize that it had been 4 days since my last post. Time flies when you're having fun and I was having fun!!! Early morning rain brought the leaves tumbling down...a few landed on my car windshield. I liked how the leaves were surrounded by light and dark reflections. It fit the mood of the day...dark yet light...coming through as the rain slowly ceased and the clouds began to retreat.
