One of my little side-projects: photographing doors, in a project I call "Doors of Perception" (yes, I am a fan of The Doors).
Perceptions is all about the way we see things. We make split-second decisions based on what we believe we see, this may not always be what is going on but it is what we perceive.
This photo was taken (around a year ago; 20/01/2011) on top of the Signal Mountains in Mauritius.
What i tried to capture (and managed) was, the colours Red (chemical container) Blue (Sky) Yellow (chemical container) and Green (Grass). These are the four colours which feature on the national flag of Mauritius. That's one perception. The second one being, Pollution in Mauritius. How the hell and why did a chemical container end up on a mountain? This is my perception.
It's such a hot day. Can you turn the air on?
I would, Edna, but it's not working .
Not working? Well then have someone come fix it!
I would, but. . .
But what, Wtanley? I need air conditioning!
Well, you have to close the windows first, and. . .
I know that! Don't you think I know that?
Well, I'm just saying. That might not be possible.
And why not?
It's the window glass. I mean, the absence thereof. . .
Men! It's always something with you!
Yes, dear. I know.
Today I had the pleasure of running into my old friend Sue. Sue founded and directed The Troupe, Michigan Tech's improv group, for many years. In that role, she was an amazing mentor and friend. Now that she's retired, she (among other things) creates beautiful felted works of art -- including this one, which recently won the jury's first place award at the Great Lake Showcase. Its name is "Perceptions", and everything you see is felted wool.

The media influences the way we perceive ourselves. Although we might look one way, due to the media, our perfection of our body is flawed.
Series emulating the photographic style of Francesca Woodman to show how women are often perceived in society.
As I experimented with different camera settings, this flock of Dunlin unexpected took flight, repositioning themselves along the beach. The combination of a high shutter speed and a high ISO resulted a photograph that looked as if it was created with a different medium.
