Profile
The camera for an artist is just another tool. It is no more mechanical than a violin if you analyze it. Beyond the rudiments, it is up to the artist to create art, not the camera. – Brett Weston
Light is the essence of a photograph: it’s the quality of light that makes the picture. Richard White
I use Cokin filters ; natural light; and white balance variations to produce the images you see here. With the exception of some minor cropping – for aesthetic appeal – I use no other post-processing on my work. The images presented in this portfolio have come straight from the camera
