Creating art...

Creating art...

I'm increasingly aware of the difference between capturing an image and creating art with my camera, and quite frankly, I love them both. Most of the time I have a particular goal in mind - whether it's taking photos of events to appreciate and savor in the days to come or documenting the wonders of nature, but recently I've become more aware of the artistic potential of certain elements that can make something ordinary and maybe even unattractive be transformed into something beautiful - at least to me. Sometimes it's serendipity. Recently it's become intentional.

The way the golden hour light illuminates the less-than-beautiful grass flower heads has always captured my attention, but by themselves, their image is not likely to appeal to anyone else, but processed by layering images (some of them flipped over), resulted in a more artistic appeal - like wallpaper or gift wrap. It's a technique I think I'll continue to explore and refine.
