Piece description from the artist
While watching my son play with an old vintage Fisher-Price school house, I noticed this upside down plastic tray – completely emptied, of course, with the magnetic letters everywhere. Shot with my cell photo as a three shot pano (I wanted the final image to be large), I flipped the image horizontally to correct the reversed letters and processed in black and white. Now I know my ABCs!
Day 180 of my 365 photo a day project.

Emotion. Mood. Feelings. This is what I capture through my photographs. Whether it is landscapes, architectural elements, still life, or macros – it is a very personal journey as my own fears, triumphs, beliefs, and shortcomings are exposed with each photo.
Much of what I shoot is done spontaneously without preconceived thought or plan. I let what is around me dictate what is photographed.
And the shooting is only the first step – a jumping off point. I take the raw images and create what I see in my mind’s eye. Coaxing out textures present in the shot – sometimes adding them. Enhancing the contrast of light and dark to create the mood and emotions I felt and feel. In the end, it’s all about listening to my heart and mind and creating a visual representation of what I feel the moment the shutter is released.
