See The Light

People who take pictures must always learn to see light and work to understand how light can effect the your image. your eye will generaly go to the lightest area of the image. These two pictures were taken at the New York public library within five minutes of each other. Sometimes take a few minutes to wait for people to place them selves in the right place to make the picture work.

Two bridges, The Broklyn in NY and a bridge under construction crossing the Panama Canal. Both are unique by cropping and eliminating distractions to make them designs.

Art requires work

Art often requires effort not just from the artist but the viewer as well. Participation from those who see the art to interpret meaning helps enrich the experience.
