Photography was my early interest and after many years of working as a filmmaker, I am rediscovering this incredible world in a new, digital light.
And I am enchanted, intrigued and mesmerized!
Advanced tools let me create images instead of just shooting pictures; enable me to compose the sights instead of just recording them; allow the images to speak out for me instead of being silent.
'In the eye of the beholder' says it all. It is how I see the world.
The photographs I take go through many hours of extensive post-production.
Some changes are dramatic, some are barely visible,
some change the originals completely, some just add a 'beauty mark'
but mostly my pictures appeal to those who appreciate drama, and those who like to be enchanted.
Those who are looking for understated beauty or social commentary maybe looking in the wrong place.
