mikeporcenaluk's photostream |
I am a freelance photographer, with a B.A. in Journalism and a Minor in Studio Art/Photography from Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania.
My wife Carla and I have nestled ourselves into the wonderful community of West Asheville, NC.
Through my photos I try to offer people interesting angles of everyday occurances, a pause in stride and a second glance at ordinary street scapes.
Though my passion is automotive photography, I find that some of my most interesting shots are of the forgotten or overlooked beauty that is everywhere, even in the desolate, if only you take the time to notice.
“The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.” -- Dorthea Lang
