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.

Summer Breeze



I'm ready for a little summer right about now! I start to get the winter blahs in mid February and long for the beautiful summer days. Won't be long now so I thought I would post a tropical image to get me in the mood...:):):) I decided to treat the image with a soft focus to make me feel breezy and warm. The colorful adirondack chair invites me to just sit and enjoy the soft sea breeze and lull me into a summer afternoon nap...if only :):):)
