. STOP, LOOK & READ It wasn't a coincidence to meet my friend Ryan; it wasn't one of those 1000 to 1 chances we hear-read about in some fiction story. It was a deliberate effort to meet a class mate impressed by his logic-powers of reasoning. Same attributes apply to his photo skills...Coaxed by his family to join Flickr (Soon after he ask me to do same...) he brings to the table a personal skill I rarely see in others but a handful of individuals allowing the very best of themselves always to come through and elevate what they do to an ART! I can see every frame projects a sense of love for his land, his family, his craft but above all a love for life! If you happen to read my words; which means you already seen something in his photos...Take some time to slowdown savor his passion; see what I saw in my friend some time back only enhanced by the passing of few years~ Ryan...You are one in a million!! .

July 21-2012 The Photographer’s Vision. It is true that when we look at a photograph, we are looking at a scene that already existed in this world and that’s just a mere image recorded. But definitely that’s not all. We are also looking at how the Photographer viewed the scenery and how the photographer chose to capture and present it to make it his art. “Art is a human activity consisting in this, that one man consciously by means of certain signs, hands on to others feelings he has lived through, and that others are infected by those feelings and experience them.” From that definition of art. There is no doubt for me that Photography is ART. A photograph delivers a message, an emotion, a feeling, in a way no words can. A sense of beauty and magnificence of life, nature, and experiences of mankind. Through photography, these messages contained in a photograph have the ability to grab and “infect” the viewer with the idea the photographer wanted to convey. A beautiful, expressive face; a transient moment in nature; the aloofness of a splendid cliff; the warmth of fire; the coldness of ice; the passion and love of a mother for her child; the sorrow of an old man mourning at his wife’s grave…a photograph is life distilled and preserved for eternity. Sometimes, a photograph is just a very ordinary scene in the real world but a photographer can capture that scene in a such a way that it makes a statement. Let’s take for example street photography, a picture of a little kid so innocent and so pure. The scenery alone is very ordinary in the real world, but the innocence of that kid can be captured and preserved for eternity, and the image has the power to move the audience. We see art in your work, a talented young man with both feet set firmly on ground! Everything you do reflects your care for always doing the very best. I enjoy your gallery since the first photo uploaded last year...I saw the beginning of a skill honed with experience of learning from other's work as well as the personal perspective given by someone who enjoys life to the full~ I look forward to your future with interest-care; be well, have a wonderful summer my dear friend!
