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.

3 Purple Balls



Lordy...I must be entering the "Alzheimer's" age as I've forgotten the names of these wonderful flowers. hence the title of "3 Purple Balls"! Anyway, I love the simplicity of the bloom with the tall, thin stem and the way the flower head sticks above the stem so beautifully straight and perfectly round. Lovely...I added a touch of drama to the flower and then texture for the bg.
