"True humility is intelligent self respect which keeps us from thinking too highly or too meanly of ourselves. It makes us modest by reminding us how far we have come short of what we can be." - Ralph W. Sockman

Photography has always been one of my interests even before I started over 10 years ago. I needed a creative outlet and photography just felt like the natural choice.

I learned a lot simply by being out and about with my camera. My creative process starts before I even press the shutter button. It starts from observation of the scene and surroundings. There is still a lot to learn and even a lot more to master.

I hope you enjoy the images in my photostream as much as I did capturing them. They were already interesting. I just happen to capture them.

My tools:

My imagination and "subjective' judgement for aesthetic beauty.

My supporting cast: These help me capture "some" of the images that my imagination conjures.
