“To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.”
— Elliott Erwitt

I have been trying to express why I have so many pictures and why I take them. This quote captures so much for me. My photographs and those taken by others are all about capturing and expressing aspects of who I am. That’s why there is such variety of mood, attitude and intent. Just like me, my pictures range through hot, sensual, harsh, beautiful and filthy.

Learning photography skills is still on my to-do list as my collection here has always been focused on a thought, mood or moment rather than a technique.

These pictures are a long lasting and still evolving relationship with myself.
