2020 Vision | I see Jesus Everywhere
2020-09-14 21:55:03 UTC
My Daily walks are my sanctuary now. Camera in hand. Empty mind. Just walking. Observing. Seeing. Feeling. Waiting for life to say this is yours. I see Jesus in all his disguises. Disguised as plants. Sentient life form. My mother’s eyes, reveals his presence. Glorious light of the world. The…

2020 Vision | Creation
2020-07-19 20:45:43 UTC
Every creative act is in direct proportion to some opposition. The last year has seen my neighbourhood and life stressed by distraction and regeneration. I see the regeneration of my neighbourhood as a metaphor for my life right now. Out with the old, create space for something new. My childhood…

2020 Vision | The Expression of Light
2020-06-18 22:07:36 UTC
Gesture. This phrase from Jay Maisel is at the source of every great moment in an image. What is the Gesture in an image? It took me forever to come up with an answer. I came to the conclusion that Gesture is the expression…..of life. This image is the Gesture…

2020 Vision | The Expression Of Light
2020-05-20 13:04:54 UTC
I am studying Light, Colour & Gesture by Jay Maisel at the moment. It’s a wonderful study about everything else regarding creating an image. There is no mention of Camera Gear or anything technical. This book is all about being open, receptive and responsive to Light. As I read this…

2020 Vision | Out Of The Darkness
2020-05-17 12:52:00 UTC
Into The Light. This is the path all Photographers walk. Learning see in the dark, hoping for that ray of Light to illuminate the way. Once I started making Light my subject, the whole game transformed. A brand new relationship between myself, The Light and how my Camera “sees” The…

2020 Vision | A Quantum of Solace
2020-05-07 13:58:59 UTC
If you have read any of The Bond Books by Ian Fleming, you will have come across this title. It’s a very short story and a brilliant study in human nature and the behaviour of people. Human behaviour is something we can never predict accurately. How a person behaves will…

2020 Vision | Seeing The Light
2020-04-22 20:30:10 UTC
Sometimes, I have to create an image just to experience how my cameras sees it, if that makes any sense. This moment caught my attention because of the low angle of the Sun. It was perfect light as my eyes saw it. So, I thought, create an image. Next to…

Inspired Moments
2019-01-04 12:40:47 UTC
There are images waiting to be created everywhere. This was staring me in the face. What did I see? I saw the reason for Colour. Light. A single Flame, a Candle, a Red Bowl. The colourful ambience of the Thai Restaurant I was in. Most importantly, my XPro2 was by…

East Coast Journal | Day 5
2018-11-09 16:36:08 UTC
I spent the whole day traveling today. A long journey from D.C. to Philadelphia with an extra local train towards New Jersey. My stop was Philmont. This excursion was feature rich with photographic moments. The Light was gorgeous around Union Station. The architecture stunning. I was truly spoilt, my camera…

Responding To The Call of Light
2018-10-25 21:03:20 UTC
From Sunrise to Sunset, she makes her presence felt. No two days are the same. The Light can be so different to the next and yet, I surrender to her mood. I sensed a playful mood in the light today which made for some interesting moments. Standing in the middle…

Natural Light | Mum
2018-10-13 14:10:32 UTC
I create images of my Mother regularly. These are for me. My memories. Life is impermanent. I choose to celebrate with her now. As time marches on each moment captured is a celebration. A joy. Each image A reminder of love, through our family United.

The Speed of Light
2018-09-17 23:22:32 UTC
This image captures a moment for me which really communicates the magic of Light. A slow shutter speed in an attempt to communicate speed and in the process harness the power of light in image creation. Today has been an exercise in seeing Light. In seeing contrast. Paying attention to…

Chasing Light | A Week of Light & Shade
2018-09-17 09:09:00 UTC
My project this week is all about Light. This makes sense. We would fumble in the dark without it. Paint to an artist. A deck of cards to a Sleight of Hand artist. Light to an Image Creator. This is an opportunity to experience the dynamic relationship between where Light…

Life At 50 | Mum - A Moment to Cherish
2018-09-09 16:31:12 UTC
If nothing else, my images of Mum are moments to celebrate. Time has no bias. Time as a concept is mute. We are born…….. Only to wither and die. In between these milestones of birth and death is the creation and expression of life. My life and expression is for…
