Perception~
Perception can be a tricky thing. With a visit to Snoqualmie Falls, my girlfriend became the subject of the photo, however, I feel the power of the picture is represented int he size of the cascading water in respect to the observer.

We bring to photography many expectations and assumptions of what the image 'should' be like. I want to play with these assumptions. Here there appears to be information missing but can we use our imaginations to fill in the gaps? How much information can be taken away before the image is useless? If this seems exaggerated, think of a black and white photo, this is a process of discarding the color information from the image.
What we need to realise is that our perceptions of the world are always filtered anyway and what we think we see and know isn't always true but merely our attempt to make the world the way that makes sense to us.
More often we want to see what is there rather than what is not there. Many of my images in general play with the idea of negative space - or what is not there. Rather that seeing the leaves on the tree, try to see the spaces between.
I am interested in the philosophy of images and our perception of the world. Here, and with some of my recent images, I am attempting to understand more and experiment with image-making.
•Having a laptop is a great tool for studying, but sometimes it can be a distraction
•Studying with your friends can also be a distraction, when you’re with your friends you are distracted and you don’t feel motivated ( the friends didn’t want to be in the photo but you can see a hand)
•Having unlimited internet can also be a distraction because as you can see she is watching a movie.
