Humanism | The Expressive Being

The Human Being is an expressive Being.

This is our natural state.

The context of a birthday celebration makes it easy for the human being to open up and express themselves.

Humanism in photography is about the expression, the emotional content in the moment and the elusive gesture.

I love seeing the gesture in an image; let me explain. The gesture goes deeper than the obvious meaning of the word.

To me, the gesture is the energy, the force on the moment that gives life to what is happening in the Frame. It’s very elusive, blink and will miss it.

Once I see it and feel it,it’s mine.

The expressive Being is Alive.

“I find humanism to be the most rational and positive philosophy for life. And it's not a new thing at all - the history of humanist thought is deep and inspiring”.
