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.

1939 Model T Truck



I've been on vacation for the last week and the internet was very spotty so I just took pics and will process as I have time at home. This shot was on a local road in the North Fork area of Long Island. North Fork is a beautiful rural area comprised of many farms, vineyards, small towns, beaches etc....not at all like the Hamptons. It was a wonderful, serene week of relaxation and fun with the fam. I processed this image to reflect the aura of the North Fork community...rural, homey and quaint.
