USA
Nominee
"Life"
Rainy day.
Biography: PHOTOGRAPHY HAS BEEN MY PASSION FOR DECADES. IT GIVES US REFLECTION OF THE PAST. AS SOON AS THE SHUTTER CLOSES, CAPTURING THE MOMENT, IT BECOMES YOUR VOICE, YOUR UNIQUE POINT OF VIEW OF REALITY. OF COURSE, EVERY PERSON'S VIEW IS DIFFERENT. SOME SIMPLY COLLECT EVENTS AND OBJECTS, WITHOUT EVEN BOTHERING WITH LIGHTING; OTHERS MIND THE DYNAMIC BETWEEN LIGHT AND SHADOW AND MAKE IT A FOCAL POINT. I AM DRAWN TO THE LATTER APPROACH.
