The Language of Photography_
"It’s the image that dictates and guides the direction of my expressions. It tells me how it "wants" to been seen_ cloaked in darkness or viewed as brilliant as the subtle hues and shades that are gifts in the offering. I interpret. How far to go? I have the final say. My signature varies, as do my feelings over time."
