I drive my family crazy taking pictures. Sometimes of them, of things they see no interest within, of incidentals in life that just shine to me. Textures always draw me- the illusion of then and the tactile reality. Thus many things I photograph are simply the wish to capture that texture. Design on the other hand, the way a line relates to space, how color shines when all else around is shades of some duller gray, How movement and activity in this frame enhances the stillness and peace over there... Here are some of the results of what I see through the lens.
