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.

A Dolphin's View



I imagine myself as a dolphin...deep underwater and as I come to the surface, this is my view of the sky through the water as the sun begins to set and the clouds become pink. I imagine, as a dolphin, that it looks very inviting and so I decide to emerge from the waters for a sneak view. And then I breathe in the air...and descend again into the waters' depth...safe.
