What I aim for is a haiku. A small poem: simple, beautiful and true.

And when I succeed, it’s not just a still-life but an intentional moment. In a different time it might have been described as “pure seeing”.

I travel light and shoot quickly. I keep a camera on me, often, when i’m doing other things, including work. I try to notice things missed. To see the familiar in a new way and to reflect myself in that vantage point. Part documentary and part abstraction. I pluck a little moment of time, a slice of visual space, snip them out and put them in my pocket for later.

It’s a practice.
