Photography shouldn't be a boring reproduction of what everyone else is doing. It should be about creating something extraordinary. I am not trying to be different. I am different!

I see things from a different point of view for various reasons, maybe it is a gift or a curse.  I'll call it a blessing for it has allowed me to be able to express myself in a way that I was not able to before.  I am lucky that I had people around me that only encouraged me and supported me in my efforts.  I see beauty in life and death and it inspires me to create.  My photos of mushrooms and dying plants are an examples of this.   I have also turned people into art but not like the great artists or photographers but a blend.  To have some one see my art for the first time after walking through a building with over 1,000 artists and have them tell you that your work is "refreshingly unique and beautiful" made me beam with pride but still humble.  

I like creating extraordinary work!
