Artist Statement
Though born in Georgia, I grew up in Connecticut. I worked
in advertising and marketing research, my last job being at Earthlink in
Atlanta. Upon retiring I decided to rekindle my interest in photography. I took
a course at the Showcase School, attended a number of photo workshops, joined
two camera clubs, and upgraded my camera to digital. I am a Canon shooter, as
much by accident as preference. The one thing I have learned from photo
competitions is all camera brands produce great images.
I process my images with Photoshop and print them on my own
printer. I do not overly process my images in Photoshop, though I do find the
Nix suite of plug-ins useful. My printer is a Canon Pro9500 and it generally
does a better job than CVS or Costco.
I do not have a subject matter specialty. As the exhibit
shows, I shoot just about anything: flowers, birds, animals, landscapes,
people. Regarding style, I do not have one though I do try to shoot things a
little differently, frequently using multiple exposures when shooting flowers.
