8/20/2016 11 Comments Welcome Thanks for stopping by.
Several people have asked me why I never set up a blog before. I suppose the reason is I was afraid I would run out of things to say. Maybe I'm less afraid the older I get so here goes. It's interesting but I was once asked, "Why do you respect photography so little?" I was actually asked that one. The questioner was offended by the fact that I would edit some of my photographs to add in or take out objects. Yes, it's true I WILL do that. In fact, I have a whole series of images that are actually "built photographs", scenes that never existed, never could exist to tell the truth. The best answer I have for this type of aberrant behavior is that I can. I can create whole tableaus of non-existent situations and I do so because I consider it art and hope that you would as well. You will not find them here, they reside on another site. Here is the more commercial side of the business and I consider them more the "artsy" side. What I bring here is the straight deal, photographs. These are shots without much in the way of editing, cropping and contrast and exposure corrections. There won't be any added dragons or meteors crashing to Earth, just what I find interesting and what people will pay me to capture. I still hope you enjoy the images. We'll get more into the philosophy later. Cheers. A
