I think that this quote sums up my feelings about the craft of photography.  I can’t drive down a road or walk through a field or see a beautiful flower or a beautiful woman without composing a photograph in my mind.  The camera has allowed me to find beautiful images within scenes that might be perceived as drab or uninteresting.   Many times the final images do not come out as I plan them – sometimes they turn out better than I could have imagined, sometimes they are a disappointment.  But regardless of the quality of the images that I produce, the camera has taught me to stop and appreciate the beauty around me.  And along the way, hopefully I have presented some images that have allowed others to see beauty through my eyes.
