Photography allows me to see the beauty in everything that life has to offer. Everything is beautiful to me and I want to document it all... This quote from "American Beauty" kind of sums up how I feel.

It was one of those days when it's a
minute away from snowing. And there's
this electricity in the air, you can
almost hear it, right? And this bag was
just... dancing with me. Like a little
kid begging me to play with it. For
fifteen minutes. That's the day I
realized that there was this entire life
behind things, and this incredibly
benevolent force that wanted me to know
there was no reason to be afraid. Ever.

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the
world I feel like I can't take it... and
my heart is going to cave in.

I studied photography during high school and university and used a manual SLR camera, and developed negatives and photos in a darkroom!

My favorite photographers are Ansel Adams, Henri Cartier-Bresson and Ken Duncan.

NB: The date of some of my photos is not the date I took the photo, but the date I uploaded it. When I use a copyright/watermark program or Photoshop it unfortunately wipes out the date and other EXIF data.
