I do most of my art in the night. I live a night life. Some times that is fine but I can miss the day a lot. So along about midnight many things seem to happen on my computer. I really like this image a lot. So many fun shapes and I really enjoy the colors. I find giving my images a name to be as much work or more then the image is to make. Look me up on Facebook.
On a side note. My new art show is now up and running. From to day to the 7th of April. If you would like to see my photos in person.

Father and son collaboration
Our photographic art is a kinetic motion study, from the results of interacting with my son A.J and his toys.
He was born severely handicapped much like a quadriplegic. On December 17,1998. Our family’s goal has always been to help A.J. use his mind, even though he has minimal use of his body.
A.J. likes to watch lights and movement. One of the few things he can do for himself is to operate a switch that sets in motion lights and various shiny, colorful streamers and toys that swirl above his bed.
One day I took a picture of A.J. with his toys flying out from the big mobile near his bed like swings on a carnival ride. I liked the way the swirling objects and colors looked in the photo.
I wanted to study the motion more and photograph the whirling objects in an artful way, I wanted my son A.J. to be a part of it. After all, he’s the one who inspires me. When A.J. and I work together on our motion artwork, A.J. starts his streamers and objects twirling, I take the photographs.
Activating a tiny switch might not seem like much to some, but it’s all A.J. can do. He controls the direction the mobile will spin, as well as when it starts and stops. The shutter speeds are long, and sometimes, I move the camera and other times I hold it still.
I begin our creation with a Nikon digital camera. Then I use my computer with Photoshop to alter the images into what I feel might be an artistic way. Working with Photoshop, I find the best parts from several images and combine them into the final composite photograph. I consider the finished work to be fine art. The computer is just the vehicle that helps my expressions grow.
I take the photographs and A.J. adds the magic. It’s something this father and son do together. After I’ve taken a few shots, I show him the photos in the back of the camera. When the images are completed, I show him from a laptop. He just looks. He can’t tell me whether or not he likes the images, but he’s always ready to work with me again.
It offers me my only glance into A.J.’s secret world. We’ve built a large collection of images and I hope the motion and color move you as much as they do me.
A.J. inspires me to work harder to understand my life in the areas of art, photography, people, spirituality, and so much more. He truly sets my mind in motion and helps me find the beauty in everyday things.

Wake up the playful side of self. Let go and just play. Fun with many of the photoshop filters. I don't even recall most of how I got here. But Had a blast making this. I think it has about five of my car images then pushed like wild to get here. Hope it is fun for you to look at. Have fun play and do your art.

If you look to the far right you can see my son AJ is in the image. So how fast is light any way, just fast. Hope you enjoy this.

What is memory like? As time moves I don't recall every thing I have been a part of. Why do I keep some things and lose other parts of my memory? Do I even recall what I really did? What is reality is it what I do or what I recall? Can we Rewrite our lives by thinking new things?

When I look to be free some times I find Im really chained to old pains. But some times It is me that put on the chains. Perhaps to brake that chain I need to let go of the old things. Freedom is being free of what holds me down. Some times to go foreword I have to stop and forgive someone and that might even be me.

I always like that back light I see in the late part of the day. I seem to be enjoying this photoshop paint. Somehow I just like how it makes the color pop out more. I don't like that every one can make the same textures by the push of some sliders. I hope to find some new way to use this. I do hope you like the composition and subject.

Experience Hamburg’s iconic harbor in a completely new way! This abstract motion blur photograph captures the essence of movement, history, and the maritime atmosphere of the famous Landungsbrücken and its tall ships. The fusion of water, architecture, and speed creates a dreamy, artistic vision of one of Germany’s most famous waterfronts.
Passengers waiting for the next train. A motion capture of the moving commuter train and passengers in KTM Station (Keretapi Tanah Melayu) or Malaysian Railways Limited in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Colored Paper 5.
This will be the last one for now. I can see a new way to work on this but need to work out how to get my mind to expand on the subject. I like this one the best of this small set. The start of this was to just play have fun with some thing in the house. I think I did it very well. This one really gets me. It go's to the place I love to go. Way out there far from my house. A place of dreams. to dream is real freedom.
Made with a Nikon D300s camera. Then a lot of photoshop.
Did a few photos of colored paper. I told some one to day to just go play. so I felt I needed to do the same.
Sorry I have not add any photos in long time. so here a new abstract.

I begin my photographic creative journeys with my son AJ at my side because he adds inspiration into the visual experience. I attach several objects to a mobile in our living room and turn up some music. Then I basically dance with my camera in hand, hoping to catch the wonderful flickers of beautiful colors, shapes and movements from the spinning and dancing motion that takes place. Then I use my Macintosh computer with Photoshop to enhance several images and combine them into the final composite prints. Some of the images are not composites but are always enhanced in some way that I feel might be beautifully aesthetically pleasing images to enjoy. These images can really feel and look as if they have been painted by a magic brush. I feel a rush of great joy in seeing one printed and hung on the wall. I feel like they sing, dance and play for my eyes and consider the finished works to be fine art photography. What intrigues me most about all photography are the colors, shapes, and patterns which give me mini vacations and provide great rest and relaxation. My great hope is that I can also offer this same joy to everyone who see my photographs. When it comes to making lasting images and having a great investment in photographic art, the best prints possible are now found to be on aluminum. The colors are vibrant and the luminescence is breathtaking. The detail and resolution are incredible. So you will get from my abstracts just fantastic eye popping art . Paper based prints will last about 20 years. The Aluminum prints are about 150 years for the true color stability. This makes it possible for even your grandchildren to enjoy them. But the best part is this can be a great investment for your love of photographic art. Some of my prints are in limited editions. If you would like to make an investment in my art prints for yourself, please let me know.
Just a fun shot.

My hope is to have people smile at my art. To have a fun time even for a few moments. There is to many things that are deep and profound. Some times we need to think less and just play.

We had almost two weeks in the hospital with AJ. But we are home and he is feeling better. He had pneumonia. So we will keep Imagining past the very stars in the sky. I started this image be for we had to take this time off from doing art. Got it finished to day. I think it is always best to dream as big as we can. Life has no time to do pity parties we must enjoy even things that seem hard to. Not all gifts come in nice packages. Every great story has highs and lows twists and turns. It is the real Adventure.

Father and son collaboration
Our photographic art is a kinetic motion study, from the results of interacting with my son A.J and his toys.
He was born severely handicapped much like a quadriplegic. On December 17,1998. Our family’s goal has always been to help A.J. use his mind, even though he has minimal use of his body.
A.J. likes to watch lights and movement. One of the few things he can do for himself is to operate a switch that sets in motion lights and various shiny, colorful streamers and toys that swirl above his bed.
One day I took a picture of A.J. with his toys flying out from the big mobile near his bed like swings on a carnival ride. I liked the way the swirling objects and colors looked in the photo.
I wanted to study the motion more and photograph the whirling objects in an artful way, I wanted my son A.J. to be a part of it. After all, he’s the one who inspires me. When A.J. and I work together on our motion artwork, A.J. starts his streamers and objects twirling, I take the photographs.
Activating a tiny switch might not seem like much to some, but it’s all A.J. can do. He controls the direction the mobile will spin, as well as when it starts and stops. The shutter speeds are long, and sometimes, I move the camera and other times I hold it still.
I begin our creation with a Nikon digital camera. Then I use my computer with Photoshop to alter the images into what I feel might be an artistic way. Working with Photoshop, I find the best parts from several images and combine them into the final composite photograph. I consider the finished work to be fine art. The computer is just the vehicle that helps my expressions grow.
I take the photographs and A.J. adds the magic. It’s something this father and son do together. After I’ve taken a few shots, I show him the photos in the back of the camera. When the images are completed, I show him from a laptop. He just looks. He can’t tell me whether or not he likes the images, but he’s always ready to work with me again.
It offers me my only glance into A.J.’s secret world. We’ve built a large collection of images and I hope the motion and color move you as much as they do me.
A.J. inspires me to work harder to understand my life in the areas of art, photography, people, spirituality, and so much more. He truly sets my mind in motion and helps me find the beauty in everyday things.

Do you ever find your self in that dark place. But then see the light is all around you? I hope we all keep looking for this light.

I begin my photographic creative journeys with my son AJ at my side because he adds inspiration into the visual experience. I attach several objects to a mobile in our living room and turn up some music. Then I basically dance with my camera in hand, hoping to catch the wonderful flickers of beautiful colors, shapes and movements from the spinning and dancing motion that takes place. Then I use my Macintosh computer with Photoshop to enhance several images and combine them into the final composite prints. Some of the images are not composites but are always enhanced in some way that I feel might be beautifully aesthetically pleasing images to enjoy. These images can really feel and look as if they have been painted by a magic brush. I feel a rush of great joy in seeing one printed and hung on the wall. I feel like they sing, dance and play for my eyes and consider the finished works to be fine art photography. What intrigues me most about all photography are the colors, shapes, and patterns which give me mini vacations and provide great rest and relaxation. My great hope is that I can also offer this same joy to everyone who see my photographs. When it comes to making lasting images and having a great investment in photographic art, the best prints possible are now found to be on aluminum. The colors are vibrant and the luminescence is breathtaking. The detail and resolution are incredible. So you will get from my abstracts just fantastic eye popping art . Paper based prints will last about 20 years. The Aluminum prints are about 150 years for the true color stability. This makes it possible for even your grandchildren to enjoy them. But the best part is this can be a great investment for your love of photographic art. Some of my prints are in limited editions. If you would like to make an investment in my art prints for yourself, please let me know.

Unleash your power Now fly the dreams within you.
I would like to offer you some peace, joy and energy for your day. Be for you read any more, I welcome you to step back from the computer screen and jump up and down two times then stretch your arms out and back two times. Now take a few deep breaths let them out slowly and read on. Do you feel a bit more awake and some energy flowing. Well, I find it helps me. Now that you have some new energy, I have this individual art experience, just for your enjoyment. My art can be a mini meditation session, even if you have only a quick glance at any given image. You can have a space to rethink your feelings and allow the colors to brighten your mood. My art images can change your day or even enlighten your moment. Some can take you on a new journey, to a place unknown before. We all have lives and things that can take us down and run us over. We all need a way that helps us escape. That is not just a drug but real mind opening energy. Colors and light can add energy to revive and awaken you and add a jump to your step. We need moments of joy to open us to more from our day. Some place to escape from the real life we all have. My art can give you a moment or even minutes of joy, if you really look into the art. Let your self travel, in to the story that you can create from my art. This will be your own secret experience. You never have to share it with any one. Or if you like you can tell every one. Now you have the opportunity, to add my art in your life. If you have a wall, you have a new home for my art to be your personal mini meditation session each day.

When did new get old? I never liked (New wave music) much in the eighties. But in the last few years I find my self looking up lots of it and really enjoying it much more now. Very little contemporary music seems to me to grab my feelings.
What is your song or band that grabs you right now and why?

Thanks to all who comment or favorite; it is always appreciated!
I took this abstract image through a train window, where the motion blurred the view into smooth horizontal lines of varying shades. The gentle gradient of colors and the minimalist composition evoke a sense of calm amidst the speed. This photograph transforms the fleeting moment of travel into a serene visual experience, finding beauty in the simplicity of motion.
Thank you for viewing! If you like this photo, remember to favorite it and follow for more! I'd love to hear your thoughts on capturing tranquility in motion. Share your comments below!
I think all art is some kind of Special event for the eyes and emotions.
Look me up on Facebook.

Gaze and delight at elements from puzzling symbols and actions gorgeously intertwined. Visions and dreams of fictional meanings and thought come alive. In to what world do I see? Is this the art or is this the nightmare of thought. Should I keep sleeping or should I awake. Great mighty voices start knocking my emotions from the left and to the right. Ultimate strange sensations flying past and around me. Reflections in the sky’s open to mysterious transformations. There is thunder that blasts in to light. Every thing here seems so ironic so unreal. I question will everything just be slipping away. Saying in the great infinity can anyone still see me. But art continues living in the minds of the dreamers that hold to truths undenied. Even elusive of thy self don't be confused of real truths.
I gave this a shot poetry of my thoughts. Some may understand some may not.
