Aside from photojournalism, the core focus of my photography from day 1 has been form composition. It is mostly an extension of graphic design education really. In graphic design, the objective is to create a balanced layout using type and images.

 

Using the urban environment as an ever-changing puzzle, I try to capture what I feel is balanced an interesting, and that is really all there is to it.

 

I did not get very far in the analog days mainly because there is a hidden cost to time and materials, but when digital photography came about to be reasonably priced, I bought one in 1997—a 640x480 Sony Mavica FD-7 for $999USD which stores images on the floppy disks.

 

Obviously technology has advanced quite a bit these days but Forms remain an active focus. This was shot at a hard-surfaced soccer pitch in Hong Kong. It is best described as a wet dream for photographers like me—filled with curves and lines ready to be framed and composed.
