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.

East River



Manhattan Bridge over the East River at night....NYC transforms itself magically at night, especially on the river. The reflections of light on the river are magnetic and every night it's a little different. I decided rather than take the typical shot of the evening lights, I would conjure up a fanciful image to capture the mood I was feeling.
