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.

Auto Reflection



After babysitting 2 grandchildren (almost 3 yrs and 7 month old) for 3 1/2 days, I am now in Florida enjoying some R&R...and very needed :):):) Driving around my home, I stopped to shoot some birds (and they flew away before pic) but I turned around to see the reflection on the top of my car. It caught my eye. I'm on my Mac which is new to me so I'm not sure how this will look on the blog. I'm still trying out some new software (always a hazard with a photographer!!!) so we'll see.

(iPhone...Snapseed and PSE10)
