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.

Magical Hour


Magical hours are usually known at sunrise and sunset because of the position of the sun and the lighting. Add fog to the mix and it really becomes magical. As the sun set one evening, the fog was rolling in at the same time and the lights were beginning to come on for the evening. Fog, lights equals mystery and magical. I liked the mood that was set with nature's elements.
