RichardDemingPhotography' s photostream  

My life is made up of the simple, sensitive, emotions towards the people, the world, and the lives around me. My love is my family, arts, design, seeing the world with new eyes each day. Photography is my passion along with food, and making people laugh and hoping I have touched them with my work.

All in all, I believe you make the image from within. Use your eyes and mind, never rely on the camera and especially not the processing of the image. Images should be judged on their content not on some computer making something that wasn't there. Artistic vision always wins in the end....
