Up close and personal
I love taking picture up close and personal. I suspect this is my natural style. The closer one gets, the more one sees. It is a world unto itself. While taking the picture, I realize I don't always see everything. I know I have captured my subject but macro photography lets me really see what the subject is all about.

Always Searching
An artist never strays from his art. During what may seem to one as down time, the artist will constantly be searching for answers to the next creative puzzle and hope to find clues in whatever way possible. Searching always, always searching for the whisper in the ear carrying us through our creative endeavors.

The work of an artist
We have to begin our projects and may feel uncomfortable at times while doing our creative work. The act of creation is a very pragmatic thing in so many ways. It is often thought that artist are flighty and non-thinkers. Oh how I beg to differ. Through my schooling I am learning more and more about the thought processes that must occur in order to create anything. Sometimes you may not even realize all the thoughts occurring as you work and make decisions.
Through it all, from the ugly duckling stage to the point of completion, it is a most rewarding experience.

Patterns in Nature 2
I have found that I really enjoy looking for alot of different things when I am in the spirit of Photography. Lately, I have noticed that my pictures inspire me in ways other than originally thought. Using the lines from the shapes that are created in photos of trees, flowers, and other things is bringing about a wealth of inspiration.

Gentle Ice Part 2
This picture was taken in Kansas the morning after an ice storm. It was a visual delight for one who is photographically inclined. Luckily the roads were not treacherous and I was grateful to be able to capture this moment.

A thing of Beauty
Speaking of beauty, who can deny the beauty of this creature and the unconditional love it brings! Beauty on another level, from this photographers perspective, is all around, and when in the act of photographing I am forced to stop and really see my world around me.

At the end of the day
When all else fails, at the end of a day that seemed like a Monday, but wasn't a Monday, a person can return to the word and share a photo and feel good about their efforts anyway.

Fond memories of warmth, Part 2
There is nothing so delightful as the sun drenching the body in warmth. Never underestimate the power and life that the sun brings us.

Gethsemane Cemetery
A photographer must get camera in hand no matter what. And proceed to hit the shutter button. New focus brings desire to hone the craft and take it to the next level. It is time the world see the world as I see it.
