The Craft Of Photography Is The Key

Photography Is An Investigation Of Both The Outer And The Inner Worlds. The First Experiences With The Camera Involve Looking At The World Beyond The Lens, Trusting The Instrument Will 'capture' Something 'seen.' The Terms Shoot And Take Are Not Accidental; They Represent An Attitude Of Conquest And Appropriation. Only When The Photographer Grows Into Perception And Creative Impulse Does The Term Make Define A Condition Of Empathy Between The External And The Internal Events.

There Still Is Some Opposition To It In Some Museums And Art Schools, But I Think Photography Has Really Grown Into A Mature Art Form.

It Is My Intention To Present - Through The Medium Of Photography - Intuitive Observations Of The Natural World Which May Have Meaning To The Spectators.

There Are Worlds Of Experience Beyond The World Of The Aggressive Man, Beyond History, And Beyond Science. The Moods And Qualities Of Nature And The Revelations Of Great Art Are Equally Difficult To Define; We Can Grasp Them Only In The Depths Of Our Perceptive Spirit.

All Art Is A Vision Penetrating The Illusions Of Reality, And Photography Is One Form Of This Vision And Revelation.
