• Description: We are all potential artisans. I use the word artisan rather than artist because I am a blue collar nuts and bolts kind of guy and I think artisan is best suited to me. Being an photographer has different many artistic possibilities and the art of photography can be summed up in terms of making or taking a photograph or, as I prefer to say, to capture or compose an image. I prefer compose! So why am I a photographer? There are a variety of reasons. One is that I want to slow the world down. I want to pause and focus. It is something of a meditative process for me, like meditating on a mantra. I want to focus on a subject, single mindedly observing with all else temporarily forgotten. Being “in the moment” is a healthy state of mind; it helps me relax and cope with the fast moving world around me. It also reaffirms that it is often the simpler things in life that are most important. Secondly I just love nature. Never ceasing to be amazed and inspired by the Grand Lady herself. Perhaps most importantly nature reaffirms how lucky I am. Despite all my imperfections I am a part of all this beauty, all this possibility, all this hope, I too am nature! Lastly, it’s always exciting to discover new ways to be creative, learn new things about perspective, composition and lighting. Artistic outlet knows no bounds and composition evolves as if it had a life of its own. My desire as a photographer is to create a unique window of light and colour through which others can view my world.
