It has been awhile since I last posted, that is because I have been too busy taking photographs. I have so many I would love share, but so little time. Or maybe its that I would rather be photographing. Anyways, if you check out my flickr site you will see I have added a new [...]

As my viewers may have noticed, lately I have become enthralled with the philosophy of identity. No particular reason other than the subject matter leads to a myriad of photographic possibilities. So, I have begun a project that documents my day to day materialistic identity. Materialistic I say? Yes…materialistic. Do I consider myself such type of person? No, but I [...]
Identity Evaluation

From time to time we all must do it. We have to take a step back and look at the image we are portraying.
We stand in the mirror and put on that face of materialization, the cloak of disguise.
We smile and convince ourselves its real. We laugh and hope it sounds sincere.
We pace our steps, [...]
Leaving a Trace

No matter how hard people try to not leave a trace of themselves behind,
it is impossible to think that we will in deed be invisible.

As I walked around the Nelson Atkins Art Museum in Kansas City, I came upon this huge window. There I stood, looking myself in the eye. I realized that the image before me was very impacting to me. It was as if I was looking at a stranger, but looking at my best friend. I guess [...]
Smile

Sometimes things don’t go the way we expect them to, sometimes they do. We never know which though. We must always remember to try and find gratification in the small things and not only in the big things. Maybe look at the smaller picture instead of the bigger one for once. Not everything that happens [...]

For all those that are not Ansel Adams aficionados, the name of this image is a play on one his images. Does anyone know which one?
Soon, I will be back in the woods and in the fields of Tecumseh. Only this weekend I will be shooting something with a little more impact. Does anyone know what it is? [...]
Reminants of Fall

Well, I believe fall is in full swing and that winter is following very shortly. As you can see from the image, the trees are clearing their branches of leaves and the water is sweeping them down the streams. I have a busy week but I hope to get out to “Red Rock Corner” maybe [...]
