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.

Door #1, Door #2 or Door #3



Let's Make A Deal...Your prize is behind door #??? Old warehouses along the East River in Brooklyn are plenty. Some of them were tobacco warehouses and this is one of them. The faded letters on the building's facade are still apparent and the doors are sometimes ajar. It is the hope that some of these warehouses will some day be renovated inside with new apartments and shops along the river. I hope the exterior will be preserved.


This is the colored version. I'm not sure which one I like better and upon further observation, I will probably reprocess for a different feel with a bit more texture perhaps.
