I Believe The Approach Of The Artist

Dodging And Burning Are Steps To Take Care Of Mistakes God Made In Establishing Tonal Relationships.

Emphasis On Technique Is Justified Only So Far As It Will Simplify And Clarify The Statement Of The Photographer's Concept.

Photography Has Escalated Almost Exponentially! It Is A Language Which Covers Almost Every Aspect Of Communication; Factual And Expressive.

The Great Rocks Of Yosemite, Expressing Qualities Of Timeless Yet Intimate Grandeur, Are The Most Compelling Formations Of Their Kind. We Should Not Casually Pass Them By, For They Are The Very Heart Of The Earth Speaking To Us.

I Have Often Had A Retrospective Vision Where Everything In My Past Life Seems To Fall With Significance Into Logical Sequence. Intuition, Suspicion, Or Confidence In New Ventures; There Is A Strange Strain Within Me When Advantage Is Not Taken Of Some Situation, The Immediacy Of Recognition Of The Rightness Or Wrongness Of A Mood, A Response, A Decision - They Are So Often Valid That I Am Increasingly Convinced That We Have Yet To Grasp The Reality Of Existence.
