Introduction: I describe myself as an intuitive photographer. My concerns in composing what I hope will be a fine piece of art are not only about equipment, gadgets, electronics and manipulation, but more importantly, they are focused on the issues of perception, curiosity and mystery.
My goal in the creation of an image is to be as resourceful in conveying the true nature of my own mind and spirit as I am at being rigorous and precise in the use of my technical skills. The technical choices that I make convey my own personal vision the manner in which I perceive the scene. I make the interpretive decisions for the people who will eventually gaze at that scene through my images.
Many times, subconscious elements guide the decisions of my mechanical process. This results in a mystical connection that I sense in the emotional portrayal of the subject. This type of art experience, I refer to as the expression of pre-verbal feelings is symbolized in a non-verbal form.
