Image in show: "Jump"


My introduction to digital imaging began a few years ago while I was working as a photojournalist at a daily metro newspaper. The technology allowed for a rapid transmission of an image from film to press and was a valued instrument for gathering breaking news.

My emphasis now is not on the speed of digital imaging technology, but rather exploring the creative wonders of the science. To use the computer as productive tool for personal expression is what I am now fascinated by. My personal work is quite diverse in its nature. From photojournalism to illustration and still life, I can't seem to settle on just one area of photography. I have always been curious to try techniques - established and experimental ones - but have found the ultimate tool for my photography by melding it with the computer.

My latest craze is the World Wide Web. And, although I have been an Internet "surfer" for a couple of years now, using the Web with a graphical interface like NetScape and Mosaic is just astounding! I invite all lovers of photography to visit my home page which includes more of my photography as well as links to other photography sites around the globe.
