I first picked up a camera in 1964, I was 10. I was changed that day, discovering that I could freeze time and space by capturing it one fleeting instance at a time. That 10 year old resides within me to this day, his sense of wonder and imagination forever coloring my perceptions of reality and how I express those visions through camera and computer.
My "Extreme Photoshop" manipulations of the digital image may be viewed as abominations of the art of photography by some, well, to each their own. Ever since my mother had opened the door to my closet darkroom another door opened, "what if...". That was the day I discovered the sabbattier effect, ever since then I've sought methods of post processing the image as captured into something in order to express those visions. Or maybe it's just something I did to myself in the seventy's...
The first image shows me shooting blind while driving, most captures are during the rush hours where I'm mostly at a dead stop. The second is a view of the underside of the "People Mover" and the last is at the Casa Marina resort in Key West, my home town.
Oops, how do you edit the title? My fingers need a built in spellchecker...
