At 30+ I understand that to live passionately and in peace is my great goal. Ok, that's all true, but I'm not sure it says enough. I love to take photos of people who seem alive. That's not just a Nike type slogan or something peddled to us by Madison Ave.; that's real life. The ups and down, the sucks, blows, and rocks, if you get my drift. I also love abstract shit. I love design and architecture and mostly just noticing things, everything you see. That's what makes us photographers interesting. We notice things. We freeze the world for that instant and allow whoever will to review that snippet of life. It will never occur again and, as fleeting and evanescent as life is, we have it captured. That's worth giving time to. That's worth the effort. BTW, every single photo on my flickr acct. was taken by me with the exception of one photo of me. While I do appreciate the hot J/O photos that most of my contacts have downloaded from the net, I'm quite proud to use this site to showcase my work.
