"I have worked as an
artist
and business professional primarily with the medium of
photography for over 25 years. As a maker
of landscapes, still life, architectural and abstract
imagery, I
usually use a large format 4 x 5 camera to create my
images. The camera
original film is either a negative, or a positive
(transparency or
slide). These camera original pieces of film are used
to print original
photographs using an Epson professional level printer
which uses
archival ink jet technology. This is a "hybrid"
process, using a film
camera to shoot, and a digital device for the
printing. I never
manipulate images, I print them to look just like the
film that was
exposed in the camera. This is "straight" and
non-manipulated
photography, and is not digitally created art (e.g.
mathematical
algorithms, Photoshop filter art, etc). I do not
over-saturate, or
digitally enhance the pictures! My photographs are
made by waiting for
the right moment. Prints are framed and/or matted,
signed, and
numbered."
