What is vision?
Everything we see is first received by the eye upside-down. Our brain then translates it so that we see the image right-side up. We can sense a single photon of light in a dark room. There’s even a blind spot at the end of every optic nerve we don’t even notice because our other eye fills in what the brain doesn’t.
Then, there’s what we perceive. Lines. Colors. Shades. Contrast. Day and night. Shapes and sizes. Letters and numbers. Organization and flow. Order and chaos. Place and time. It is a lot to process.
Is it any wonder then, that we all focus on, and see things, differently?
It is through the artist’s eye that we see the world in ways we would not have otherwise seen. Or, that takes us to places we have never been, or otherwise might never go.
And it moves us. Inspires us. Makes us think. Appreciate. Understand.
This body of work is a select journal of our world, captured as moments in time, space, and place, spanning a lifetime of working behind the lens, in both black & white, and color.
While some images can be interpreted as conceptual, most appeared naturally, unfolding before the camera. While not a sixth sense, sometimes it feels like a gift, seeing the world through this lens, and being able to share my vision with you.
Think of these galleries as my visual diary. A record of what I have seen in the world, and how I recorded it.
My goal as an artist is to give the viewer the opportunity to see the world from a new perspective. Asking them to engage with the details, nuances of light and shadow, interplay of colors or shades of grey, the textures and the juxtaposition of shapes and forms that they may miss while moving distractedly through a busy world. To share my way of seeing things with others, and hopefully show you something you might not have otherwise seen.
My life and work have taken me around the world, photographing extraordinary cities, intimate scenes and vast landscapes. By sharing my vision of these places I hope to foster a deeper appreciation of the beauty and diversity of our planet, and to encourage others to embrace that beauty.
Limited Edition Black and White Photos
"Black and white are the colors of photography.”- Robert Frank
Black and white images hold a special place in my heart, as they are where I started my photographic journey. You can read the whole story on my “About The Artist” page. And even though I have color galleries on this site as well (the bulk of my commercial work over the past 45+ years has indeed been delivered in color), black and white still resonates.
Having been schooled in the traditional darkroom from the age of 13, I try to bring that sensibility to my black and white image making even in this digital age.
The limited edition prints I offer are similar to what we would have produced in “the old days,” in that the modern Baryta papers we use deliver prints basically indistinguishable from what came out of my old traditional darkroom, and in fact are even more archival. And the prints are identical, from one to the other. The dodging and burning, if you will, need only be done once and then the saved file can be printed exactly the same each time. And the control that digital capture and processing offers yields even more dynamic images than I was ever capable of utilizing film.
To stay true to my black and white roots, the images are printed and delivered on rich Baryta paper, with the white paper border. Should you desire, they can be mounted on a foam core or Dibond back, either with or without those borders. But no other finishing options are offered. I intend for your finished print to be as true to the history of black and white photography as possible.
The prints are limited to an edition of 7 for each size (inquire if you need an even larger custom size) and each image comes with a certificate of authenticity showing the edition number.
Limited Edition Color Photos
“The goal of any artist is to show you something you might otherwise not have seen…” — Unknown
Color. It is how most of us see the world. And in truth, we all see color a little differently, whether it’s because of our particular color receptors, or maybe the biases that we subconsciously bring to our view of the world.
While I started my photographic journey in black and white, and indeed decided to place my black and white work foremost on this site, the fact remains that the vast majority of the commercial work I have done in my career has been captured, and delivered, via color photography.
A lot of time color can actually be the subject of the photograph. It can almost hit you over the head. Other times the colors are a small part of the scene, working with the composition to render the feeling that we are trying to convey.
In any case, there are a variety of subjects that you will find here. As I say in my Artist’s Statement, I hope to foster a deeper appreciation of the beauty and diversity of our planet. And sometimes the best avenue is color.
Unlike the black and white print offering, I offer traditional color prints on archival Baryta paper, and I also offer ultraHD prints utilizing Fuji Crystal Professional Archive Maxima paper. You can read all about this in the “About Our Prints” section.
Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy viewing the various images in the galleries.
Thanks for looking.
